Here is today's example that off-the-record information is important to the discourse in Kansas City . . .
THANKS TO KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS WE KNEW ABOUT GUNFIRE NEAR CROWN CENTER LATE SATURDAY NIGHT!!!
And then . . .
MONDAY NIGHT THE STAR FOLLOWS-UP WITH SOME ADDITIONAL DETAIL . . . "A shooting early Sunday in Kansas City injured three teenagers and damaged a building and walkway at Crown Center."
To wit . . .
THE MOST AWESOME AND KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS ARE ALWAYS FIRST, ALWAYS UNIQUE AND WITHOUT RESPECT FOR POLITICAL NICETIES WHEN IT COMES TO GETTING RAW INFO OUT THERE TO THE PUBLIC SO THEY CAN JUDGE FOR THEMSELVES!!!
Thanks to AMAZING TKC TIPSTERS and SO MANY OTHER GOOD PEOPLE who have helped this site . . .WE'LL DO OUR BEST TO KEEP THE CONVERSATION GOING AND MAINTAIN OUR RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH . . . Oh yeah, and hottie photos for added "stimulation" during our talks. Or something. Natch.
kc just keeps getting more violent.
ReplyDeleteIf your idea of free speech includes lying and slandering (it does), keep the shitty work.
ReplyDeleteSlanderella, the shoe fit all along. How's it feel?
"According to paperwork filed in court, Botello denied that he was liable for anything related to the posts but only agreed to the settlement “to avoid the cost of further legal proceedings.”
ReplyDeleteWright and Botello also agreed not to disparage each other or members of their immediate families."
You've been reading for a year bitch.
You are one of Tony's best customers and you count in his stats. Looks like you got fooled Star flunkie.
Sorry.
Hey didn't Slanderalla say this site was going to get shut down? Imagine how disappointed he must be?
ReplyDeleteProbably a lot more than TKC.
Louie got his pound of flesh, Tony will keep blogging and haters will keep hating.
Where it stops nobody knows.
I think you and xalti should get married TKC.
ReplyDeleteWuz up! Wuz up with this apology stuff. This is the Internet dudes the Internet doesn't have to apologize for nothin!
ReplyDeleteAnd idiots keep believing the lies and hate still posted here. I'm looking at you xalti.
ReplyDeleteStats mean nothing if you're too stupid to monetize your website but Google wouldn't touch this site with a ten foot pole.
Once a list, always a liar. What a way to go through life.
Now that your credibility has been demolished, Tony - and every public official in town now knows anything they say they can be twisted around - what's next?
Your credibility is something you can't get back.
Sure Ninja. That explains why you have No Income, No Job, Assets (zilch)
ReplyDeleteThe clueless ones keep jabbering and learning nothing.
ReplyDeleteThe informed ones keep learning and staying on top of it all.
So this is Kansas City? Thanks for the early warning.
ReplyDeleteWas it determined who the Tipsters, John Doe #1 and John Doe #2 are? Or are they just voices in Tony's head?
ReplyDeleteThe who?
ReplyDeleteNo not The Who you moron the Tipsters.
ReplyDeleteReady for the fab knockers of Jordan Carver.
ReplyDeleteOMG think I just spotted Tony and Lou having a beer together. WTF? Uh . . Developing!
ReplyDeleteHow come Limbaugh and Hannity never get sued for all the stupid lies and slander they spew?
ReplyDeleteThe Tipsters were a great Hispanic '50s doo-wop band. There were four members:
ReplyDeleteAurelio Stinkfinger
Buttaface Botello
Xalti McCholo
Rita "The Hole" Valenciano
Two of them spawned Tony. He got the worst of both -- sort of a Latino version of Vincent from Twins, except he didn't have a sibling.
Because lies and slander are standard routine these days idiot.
ReplyDeleteI think there is a new band-outfit called His Panic Attack also. Kind of a punk rock rap outfit. Neck tats and all that stuff.
ReplyDeleteLimbaugh and Hannity have backers who will spend huge amounts of money to protect.
ReplyDeleteTony did the smart thing and saved tons of money. Besides this way Tony gets to fight again another day and he will.
Tony, you gutless piece of shit. Every time any other medium cuts off comments to an article or post because the higher-ups know they'll look like fools, you attempt to call them out on a lack of balls.
ReplyDeleteAnd what do we see down below, beneath the shit-sandwich you had to eat, served up by Louie? No comments link.
I'd say you lost the last shred of credibility you ever had, but that would presume you had any when you launched this digital toilet.
Have another bite, dickhead.
Hey stupid did you not think maybe court ordered or the agreement said no comments?
ReplyDeleteU think Tony or Louie really give a shit about commenters.
ReplyDeleteTony is right so often that he doesn't really give a shit about "credibility" from internet trolls.
This was about power. The FD flexed,Tony stood up with a lot of help and we all got a good show. U suckers r just showing that u clueless.
Funny thing is, Tony has been up against much worse but just keeps doing his thing and adding up hits.
Gandhi and MLK defied court orders to stand up for their principles Dave. Why not Tony?
ReplyDeleteHits don't mean nothing xalti . Hits can be anything. Ten people clicking all over the place all day, bots, spammer mills looking for places to exploit. So spare us the geek crap.
ReplyDeleteGandhi and MLK were willing to go to Jail to stand up for their principles. I don't think Tony quite has the gonads for that yet.
ReplyDeleteProbably because no one would want to have to pick up his bail. I don't think Donald Trump is a regular here either.
ReplyDeleteGunfire at Crown Center? Does that mean we'll have to spend another couple million on bullet-proof windows for the streetcar?
ReplyDeleteBetween the water lines bursting and the bullets flying, the out-of-towners are going to think they're on a Disneyworld ride.
Is KCMO a great city, or what?
[M]y dad @billyraycyrus used to tell me ‘opinions are are like a** holes every body has one’
ReplyDeleteTony's survival, is a victory, a watershed moment for local 1st Amendment folks, who still believe, that the freedom of speech on this blog, is tantamount to freedom of speech every where in the United States Of America.
ReplyDeleteGod bless you Tony, God bless your mom, God bless your fucked up ideas and philosophy, God bless your victory in the freedom of speech.
Now if we can just get rid of them damn red light cameras we'll be free!
ReplyDeleteThey cut a deal. Case closed. Why in the hell does everything have to be such a damn drama? Tony's not the first one to ever have to apologize and retract in this stupid screwed up lying and conniving business. Hell you haven't made it in this business until you at least have one lawsuit under your belt. A battle scar to show off.
ReplyDeleteRight on 9:15
ReplyDeleteT will never make it in this business, if by business you mean a living wage...
ReplyDeletechuck
ReplyDeleteyou're one of T's better sock puppets; take your act national, dude.
And what did Mr. Louie Wright ever do to reduce gun violence or make Kansas City a better place to live?
ReplyDeleteI guess Mr. Louie Wright, who I have heard is a drunk and corrupt political SCAB,could only find one thing out of hundreds that were said about him on this blog that was inaccurate, so he jumped on that, in my opinion.
By the way, I have never fallen off a bar stool and injured my head. In my opinion, not everyone can say that.
10:31, as a member of "Not a Big or Sloppy Enough Drunk to Fall Off a Barstool and Hit My Head Club" I salute your comments and second them.
ReplyDeleteLouie is pond scum. With apologies to pond scum.
Tony, congrats on the settlement and for living to fight another day. One retraction doesn't bother me one bit. I still read your blog as I have for years, and still have mad respect for you.
ReplyDeleteAt the end of the day Louie may have got what he wanted, but the MAST response times were still better, and the current Louie Wright created department still sucks donkey balls. His win is hollow, it changes nothing.
Carry on!
Louie's "win" serves as affirmation that, as big a lying, drunk, prick that he is, that unhappy little boy inside him still cares what people think about him. No number of apologies, retractions or lawsuits will change the fact that Louie is a piece of shit, a liar and a drunk who is so sloppy when wasted he can't keep his droopy old ass on a barstool.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work Tony! Let the crybaby asshole Louie's apology fall off the page and keep on keeping on.
What about gunfire in KC?
ReplyDeleteThis town is still going to shit. Let's clean it up.
Louie 'wins' becuase tkc pretty much made everything up.
ReplyDeleteSorta like 80% of the above "comments".
ANON @ 11:23
ReplyDeleteLet 'Louie's apology fall off the page..."?
I think not: http://wrightapology.blogspot.com/
Tony, please start deleting these fuckers. They're getting old. Looking for attention on your blog since they can't get it on their own.
ReplyDeleteTony if you didn't have haters you would lose half of the readership. By the way, I'm pretty sure most of these people are Little Big Nose Nicky. I haven't heard anybody stand up for the other side really. Not even his own people.
ReplyDeleteIt's all a good show. Keep up the "work" or whatever you call it.
Just f-ing with you man.
Too much drama. Could we have some news please?
ReplyDeletePancakes...there's always pancakes.
ReplyDelete9:52
ReplyDeleteDoes that mean, I will never eat lunch in this town again?
It annoys me the way bloggers throw out the Free Speech card knowing that what they were posting and reading is of other intent.
ReplyDeleteA journalist or blogger can not or should not make money posting baseless unverified claims with malicious intent to destroy the image or character of another individual and call it free speech.
While this blog publishes news every day it also publishes what seem to be clear paid take down pieces with the purpose of annoying an individual for a day and affecting their image when googled in the future.
That is called defamation.
