Our old friend David Brauer (former 'editor' of Downtown Journal) is the latest moron to write the same article which has been written a million times. Evidently he has upset some people by his story in which he bad mouths Tom Barnard and for whatever reason uses other people's facebook comments to do so:

A bit unethical...also, find something worth reading to write about for a change. But, whatever it takes to get people to click.

Well, I'll admit it was sort of a curious piece, and using the Facebook material was a poor choice, but...

Brauer is the media critic for MinnPost, so I'd expect him to comment on something like this. And in my experience, he's the farthest thing from a moron. Not sure why you've felt the need to put 'editor' in quotes; the Downtown Journal was much better under his guidance.

Your post seems like a strange over-reaction to the article, I think.
