I'm not a regular reader of Cincy Magazine, but they appear to have brought in Peter Bronson, former columnist for the Cincinnati Enquirer, to write a hatchet job feature on new Cincinnati Police Chief Jeffrey Blackwell. In this article you get basically everything one expects from Peter Bronson, defend the police when they are Republican and/or Elder graduates, but attack them when they are Democrats.
When Bronson wrote for the Enquirer he was a shill for the Cincinnati police union and except when the FOP turned against John Kasich's union busting efforts, Bronson is back carrying their water. I'd like to know how many of Bronson's sources are or have connections to the local candidates for CPD chief that didn't get the job. I'm betting all of them.
One of my all time favorite Bronson tantrums was a column he wrote on Labor Day, in which he criticized city workers. I wrote a letter to him suggesting that he get a 'real job" to see what it was like to do real work. I got a typewritten reply in which he stated he worked on a road crew when he was in college.
