Only in Bridgeport

Award-winning journalist Lennie Grimaldi cracks open the juicy stuff in Connecticut's largest city

The Trouble With Slogans

by:

“Together we are making Bridgeport the cleanest, greenest, safest most affordable city, with schools and neighborhoods that improve each year”…. Mayor Bill Finch 

The salutation above graces every Finch news release, statement, feel-good spin. Perhaps the mayor feels if people hear it enough they’ll start to believe it?

The trouble with this kind of mantra is defending it when election time rolls around. Finch is now approaching the midway point of his mayoralty so still some time to put those words into action.

So, I ask you…

Is the city cleaner?

Is it greener?

Is it safer?

More affordable?

Schools and neighborhoods improved?

Can’t wait to hear your response.

    The city is none of the above. Just a meaner city, after those two puppies were power washed down the drain, at the Bridgeport animal shelter on Friday
