Michael Nutter, I have to say I haven’t been more frustrated with you at any point in your career since I’ve lived in this city until this moment right now. I watched the pressers and your frustration with handling them all day Wednesday. The entire universe for a fleeting moment was focused on tragedy in the urban core of your city, the city you command and control, and it made Philadelphia look like a city in the third world.

What’s the difference between the Rana Plaza building collapse and the, what I shall dub anyway, the Basciano Collapse? The Rana Plaza garment factory collapse has actually led to a worldwide movement to shop for guilt-free clothes. What reform movement will come from the Basciano Collapse?

Nothing.

This should be printed on the front pages of the Inquirer, the Daily News, Philadelphia Weekly, City Paper, Jewish Exponent and The Tribune. But it won't, because they all want to put their own spin on this tragedy and some off them want to suck up to the mayor and council and the blight lords.
I'm now beyond cynical when it comes to this city doing the right thing.
