I have word from a reliable source there was a homicide in North Minneapolis tonight. The victim is believed to be a 44-year-old male, race unknown, who was stabbed. The stabbing took place on 18th Ave. N. but I do not have the cross street. That is all I know at this time.
(Correction, September 23: A previous version of this blog post stated this blog had the information before any other media source. It appears this blog did beat one major television station, but did not have the information before some other media players; some of which TWEETED it like any common citizen with access to social media)
Murder in North Minneapolis? Shocker! What's next L3SO moves in? Thanks for the scoop Johnny Northside!
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome. And this blog had the story half a day before the major media.
ReplyDeleteSaw this last night before 11 on the Kare 11 website. Was a stabbing and the cross street was Lyndale.
ReplyDeleteKARE 11 didn't have their story up until 10:53 AM the next day and the story makes mention of "Friday night," which was the previous night. Are you sure you know what day TODAY is troll breath?

You are full of it Johnny. The Strib has in up within 30 minutes,long before it appeared on this bog.

MPD had a press briefing at 10:15pm
Coming late to the party was KSTP posting it at 6:33am on 9/22, 11 hours after it happened.

You are ABSOLUTELY WRONG that you had the story a half day before the major media. And the article you did post didn't have half the info the major media had, like that Lyndale was the cross street.
Now you can pull your head out of your ass and apologize to "troll breath", you arrogant prick. :-)
I still lord over KSTP, however. Ha.

Stanley Hubbard takes a morning shit that is more respected than you.
Does that mean you were wrong about having the scoop over the major media?
ReplyDeleteI have made corrections accordingly.
ReplyDeleteIn regard to Stanley Hubbard; I am sure when he's using the bathroom first thing in the morning his news editors are drinking their morning coffee and looking over Johnny Northside Dot Com for hot leads on good stories.
Boy you can't admit you were wrong gracefully can you? Every MAJOR news outlet Tweets stories while their professional writers gather all the FACTS and prepare a story for their web site.
ReplyDeleteIt's the way it's done now, social media, Facebook and Twitter is where the smart people go to get their news. It comes right to your desktop or smart phone. No more waiting for the 5,6,9 or 10 o'clock news, or waiting for the paper to come to your doorstep. Even your favorite paper City Pages uses Facebook and Twitter.
NEWSPAPERS AND BLOGS ARE DEAD.
And if you think any media outlet checks your blog with their morning coffee for good stories, your head is too far up your ass to be removed. Maybe that's why you can't see what a douchebag you are.
keep on pissing off all of the people who post in their brave anonymous style(sarcasm font) because if they were worth their weight in shit they would do otherwise. i am not worth a shit, myself, and i love that you know how to get their ire worked up. Please keep up the good work :)
ReplyDeleteUm, Anon 11:13, you claim "SOCIAL
ReplyDeleteMEDIA, Facebook and Twitter is where the smart people go to get their news"
yet you also state "And if you think any media outlet checks your blog with their morning coffee for good stories, your head is *blah blah blah*"
I'm not sure who's head is where, but you'd better check out a mirror.
Looks like your world is continuing to collapse. We know he was one of the people who provided you with insider information, and our whistle blower report is bringing him down, along with you.

Oh, anonymous little troll, that's YOUR whistle blower report now, is it? Well, it looks to me more like an internal matter which came up as a result of an audit initiated by the city itself with nothing to do with you, me, anybody who complained, nothing. Just something that came up. But here you are trying to get a few yards of pathetic milage out of it.
ReplyDeleteAs for who Johnny's sources are you can just keep right on guessing.
Nice, more false bravado. "Trolls" got your house placarded. Never underestimate the power of the trolls. There is only one JNS, there are lotsa trolls. Tick-tock...
