But how do you really feel Charlie?
Not one to hold back, Fox2 reporter Charlie LeDuff ripped into Mayor Dave Bing for what he called his pathetic performance Thursday night before angry cops, laid off workers and citizens at a community meeting on the city's east side.
LeDuff states in his biting commentary:
It must have been a heavy load because the mayor couldn't bring himself to stand -- not even once -- to address the people.
He was a gray man in a gray suit. A shifty-eyed squirrel cornered by a clowder of cats. He was feeble.
Imagine other mayors in times of hardship -- Coleman Young, Rudy Giuliani, even Rahm Emanuel in Chicago -- trying to hide behind their nameplates.
Bing, as is his custom, had nothing to offer a city in need of hope. The former NBA star was an empty pair of high-tops.
