Detroit Rises! That's the kind of stuff on which the media needs to focus. Attitude adjustment....not the Sara Klein "dear john" BS. Join the "happy talk downtown boosters" and see for yourself. ALL PRAISE DANIEL HOWES. DETROIT RISES. |

hey Bump this! why isnt everyone fawning over this positive piece??? If someone says something remotely negative there's a flame war. Here we have a positive post....linked by CL (that may be the answer right there)...and all I hear are crickets. Maybe it's just the hardwired insecurities and inferiority complex Detroiters seem to lug around. Need to have someone slam them before the dander is up. In any event, in addition to some positive media coverage, this is a pretty well-written piece, and Mr. Howes deserves some kudos for that. |

It is a great article, no doubt. It's not the first time I've read that only Detroit residential real estate is selling in the region, or the entire state. That says something in itself. |

A pretty good no-nonsense article. Crickets here may be due to there not being any earth-shaking news in the article, or due to CL's poor choice of a thread title. (Although that could have been an error, you can't change a thread title once it's entered.) |

Hey!? Where are all the media critics and Journalism 101 grads to complain about the integrity and competency of the Detroit press media? Where are all the folks complaining about the developers being from New York and not from Detroit? Hello? |
