Hey Gavin, Maybe You Should Fire Peter Ragone
Mayor Gavin Newsom is a master of using talking points and buzz words, never saying much of anything and, lately, getting angry whenever someone asks him a tough question. Turns out his press secretary, Pater Ragone isn’t as slick as Gavin’s hair. According to KGO TV’s Dan Noyes, it seems as though Ragone has been posting under fake names on various local blogs, including SFist and the KGO News blog touting Newsom and attacking his perceived enemies. A number of posts have appeared on both sites under the name John Nelson, which originated from Ragone’s home before 8AM. Ragone is claiming that Nelson is his best friend and that Nelson posted these comments, but no one’s really buying it. Here’s a sample comment directed at Rita of SFist (who he seems to have some weird fascination with): this rita chick is kind of weird with her angry infatuation with gavin newsom. sfist is a fun read - save her kooky and snarky attempts to make the mayor look bad. I especially like how he dumbs down his language to sound like “just some dude.” On the KGO site, he posted under the name “Byorn,” as in, we weren’t Byorn yesterday. Below is Noye’s report last night. The best part is when Noyes calls Ragone on his shit and he looks like he got caught on Dateline’s To Catch A Predator. “Absolutely not. Absolutely not.”
