    "According to our source, the allegations against the mayor, apparently circulated in Albany and possibly New York first and had not reached mainstream Buffalo at the time of this announcement."

    The story was on PoliticsWNY and SpeakUp for, at least, 5 days before Brown's announcement.

    Wow, like BRO is getting all editorial lately. Okay, good for them. As for Brown and his detractors, there's a tidbit stating that many development plans were made prior to his administration. Well, yeah, and most of them languished for years. This admin is actually getting them moving and seeing them forward to reality.

    It's an election year in the state level. Think about that and wait for fact rather than fiction.

    At least the streets are cleaner and there are more drug busts than ever before.

    Why is any of this even interesting or worth reporting? Who cares about rumors?

    @WNY...the operative phrase here is "main stream". But I like your new policy of posting derisive comments under your own outlet's name rather than switching to one of the several others that you typically use.

    I searched your site but didn't find a story on Monday, just this on Thursday:

    "This Statement was released late this afternoon, surrounding rumors that Mayor Byron Brown is being investigated and may have to step down after a local website published the rumors.

    It wasn't us... and strangely enough it wasn't the usual suspect either..."

    If an outlet published it, why can't you name them? Otherwise it looks like a rumor about a rumor, know what I mean?

    "If an outlet published it, why can't you name them? Otherwise it looks like a rumor about a rumor, know what I mean?"

    uh.. not really. Lets call it a similar policy like the one you have in place that you don't link to our website, we don't link to theirs...

    And if you would stop deleting all my screen names I wouldn't have to post under my real name,

    If you want to talk about posting comments under your own name, lets have a discussion shall we... seeing that 80% of the comments on this site originalte from your office, id bet you won't want to talk about that will ya, chazbrown?

    Funny how someone created an account specifically to bash alan and chris... Hmm!

    Elenaisatool was my favorite, can you reinstate it?

    1. Ummm, are personal and off-topic attacks ok around here as long as they're directed against a BRO competitor?

    2. The whole BRO vs. WNYmedia thing is stupid enough. But BRO comes off looking even worse when critiques of their content are met with personal insults.

    @ecb: There was a nasty post and I missed it? Damn... can you email it too me? I can assure you it wasn't me.

    @ Chaz/elena: I challenge you to show me one post on our websites that was specifically posted in exchange for money. please. Id love to see it.

    I am done with you fools for another week. I've have already surpassed the limit on my BRO visits for this week. Anymore this weekend and I may vomit on myself.

    you can email me at admin@wnymedia.net. I do not know your email address unless your name is Newell, Barry or Elena. Oh wait, speaking of FAIL... Newell doesn't work here anymore either...nevermind...

    "According to our source..."

    You need to get better sources. The rumor was swirling around city hall since Monday.

    Do Buffalo a favor and just stick to your usual nonsense.

    You have my email address. You want to argue with me and keep it off these pages so that readers can stay on topic, send me one.

    DUDE. i did not hit submit 3 times! this must be the buffalo news tampering again. colin. i completely disagree with you. It has nothing to do with one being more valuable then the other but content and dimension of discourse. Take for example the cherry bomb on everyones sabres sunday. Not only was bucky gleason able to convince the whole town he was glenn danzing, he sold our whole organization down the shittier like some do it yourself heart surgeon.

    what makes this site so cool is the topic and discussion's. I love mayor brown because he makes me feel less guilty about George Bush.

    I got lite up?

    If anyone suggests that I am a tool for BRO, maybe they need to go lite up.

    I have noting to do with either WNYmediaFAIL or BRO. I am just sick of the classless dreck coming from WNYmediaFAIL.

    BuffaloPundit/BuffaloGeek/WNYmediaFAIL has even gone to the lengths of moderating my comments on their beautifully designed sites.

    It is quite funny if you think about.

    They accuse BRO of advertorials when they clearly post such things.

    Dreck!

    Just because you gals can't get your facts straight or a decent place of your own to rent, don't go raining on everyone's parade.

    Hey, I've been out of town a couple weeks and need to catch up? Which rumor did the mayor deny? A. The one about him taking bribe to agree to sell Fulton St. to the Senecas? B. The one about him taking bribe to make a future deal to sell Senecas the BMHA site just east of casino site? Or C. The one about him getting feelers about a Fed job but having to back off so as not to trigger an FBI background check that would have exposed either of those first two bribes?

    Everything I read in BuffNews or on TV web sites only had denial and no details of the rumors. Somebody help me out here please.

    Nice to see BRO adding this type of story! Politics can be positive and contribute to the Buffalo is Rising theme...as long as it is kept constructive.
