Some of the response to @markpoloncarz’s retweet to @buffalopundit’s column seem like fake accounts: folks with few followers who only tweet Poloncarz-related digs.

A very important piece by Alan Bedenko in today's @PublicBFLO. I hope all will read it because he, as a son of immigrants, really distills why standing by and saying nothing about bigoted and racist comments matters. https://t.co/rITOTlfLMg

“No Answers to Stupid Questions” is basically the gist — the “tl;dr” of this Buffalo News article by Sandra Tan. It does little except to parrot Republican concern-trolling over what, if anything,...

A local purveyor of fake news has taken to Twitter, Facebook, and probably your email inbox—and the email inboxes of my current and former colleagues—to label me a “serial harasser” and to solicit...

It is the responsibility of Congress to seek out the facts. The President has stonewalled every Congressional request and forbid government employees from complying with subpoenas. These actions further seek to obstruct the transparent and lawful government Americans deserve.

Reporting by @ipostnews's @ghkelly1969 & @PublicBFLO's @buffalopundit says Lynne Dixon's campaign straight-up lied to authorities about the contents of its recent push poll. Perhaps campaign operative Chris Grant just likes the thrill of being investigated. https://t.co/8xpciOkYWq

In the Buffalo News seriously going to amplify propaganda in the county executive race?

The Buffalo News, which has taken something of a sharp turn to the right, published an “Another Voice” column penned by a health insurance broker. The conflict negates the opinion, but it deserves a...

@egemini618 @PublicBFLO Scrolling through this and I really appreciate the pushback. Also, the original piece's author also didn't seem to attempt to speak to an impacted person whose life would change if they had access to a driver's license. I guess that's too much to ask for in reporting too.
