Marion Barry's Negative Press Strategy
Marion Barry, former D.C. Mayor, current (and recently reelected) City Council member and noted geologist (okay, maybe not, but he is known for fancying certain types of rocks), just can’t help but make himself a liability where the media is concerned. He represents Ward 8, the part of the District most resembling Detroit.
To celebrate his victory Tuesday night, Barry took to the microphone…to attack Asians. Yeah, I don’t get it either. Actually, I do. A microphone and cameras only capture stupidity, they don’t create it.
