I spotted this commentary on the Metro Times. "‘First World Problems’ in Detroit".

It’s media criticism time again. As so often happens with the national media, they shine their spotlight on Detroit looking for complaints of economic inequality and they find Kopietz as their poster child. They photograph him in what is, presumably, his apartment, an aquamarine room with a matching aquamarine retro lamp, wearing hip eyewear as if it were no big thang.

Make no mistake, Kopietz is, in fact, a victim of economic inequality. That’s not the issue. The issue is that, in a city with an official poverty rate hovering around one-third, CNN Money zooms in on Kopietz and a number of other people of just enough means to sell the story: the have-somes.

As for those have-nots, don’t expect CNN Money to come knocking on your door anytime soon …
