Rachel Laing, director of communications for the City of San Diego and Mayor Gloria’s top PR person, took a swipe yesterday at Editordude of the OB Rag, Frank Gormlie.
In a discussion of local journalists on her tweeter account, Laing took a shot at Gormlie — for some reason.
Laing is notorious for spreading Gloria’s narrative on tweeter, and in fact, must spend a whole hell of a lot of time on her media platforms – and has been roundly criticized for wasting valuable city time dissing individuals critical of her boss on tweeter.
Here’s a screen shot of the comment by Laing (Ryan is Ryan Clumpner and Doug is Doug Porter):
In a statement to be made public, Editordude said:
“Well, I guess we’ve been critical of Todd lately. But I actually feel kind of honored to be considered an enemy at the top echelons of the Gloria administration. Rachel had better get ready to stage a whole bunch of interventions, cuz there’s a lot of people who agree with us about the shamelessness and ineptitude of Gloria right now.”
Bill Walton for mayor!
Congratulations Frank! I’d wear this tweet with a badge of honor!
Ah… to be a thorn in the side of ineptitude!! Congratulations! Keep doing the excellent work that annoys them so much!
Well Rachel, you seem threatened. by truth?
Was we see in this case, Twitter and IG are perfect platforms for people to make public fools of themselves.
Love that EditorDudes name has become shorthand! Rad!
