Yeah, some of the outlying suburbs are not the prettiest, but as far as Downtown the things he said are just off (like the old mills dotting the "town" - there are NO steel mills within Downtown limits). It's like saying Lincoln Park = Chicago. If he wants to write about the MSA, fine, but say that's what you're doing. We're all very sick here of reading lies about our city and having people believe that's what it's about.
And it's THE South Side. grrrrr.

If some columnist from Pittsburgh or wherever wants to say that Lincoln Park = Chicago, who cares? Why would that bother anybody?
Of course dude is just talking crap about a rival. Anybody who takes something like that seriously and forms an opinion on Pittsburgh as a result isn't that bright anyway, so who in the hell cares.
Honestly, I'd be happy if people talked shit about Denver. If more people knew how awesome it was, they'd all move here. I like to perpetuate the myth that it's always freezing and covered with snow, and that the only beer is Coors. That'll scare people away.
