Absurd logic. Name a case where some selfless benefactor positively impacted Detroit and Metro Times criticized it?

MT did a great job pointing out the absurd "journalism" from the Freep and DetNews, both of which have been reduced to propaganda cheering sections for sports billionaires, spouting faknews scenarios of an "empty" neighborhood and the "revitalization" via parking lot.

This region would probably be much better if it just got rid of professional sports. The teams basically all suck, and the fans are [[mostly) a bunch of mindless drones. They would sooner give their last dollar to rapacious billionaires than pay for safe streets, clean water, and good schools. They think pretty much all working class people [[except for themselves, of course) are "welfare queens", while deifying sleazy billionaires.
