I love the beauty of the Seattle area, but I've never lived there. Having severe allergy problems, I don't think I could live in a city so dedicated to mold.

What sort of agenda would they have, though? An axe to grind against a certain city?
Every city has a reputation, heck, every area of the country has a reputation. People have notions about Pittsburgh, Detroit, Boston, NYC, Washington DC, and lots of other cities. There are assumptions made about Southerners, Northerners, New Englanders, West Coast people, etc. It's not really a big deal (unless you're part of a city's tourism bureau); some cities are more depressing than others, some are more fun than others, it just is what it is.
