If WHYY had a reporter who repeatedly referred to the "Shoey-kill" River... well, we can all guess how a town like Philly might react

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

*sigh* Another @bravestatevt episode about very local history, another reporter who can't pronounce the name of the town he rolled into to interview people

I am available for *Certified Vermont Rustic Country Bumpkin* place name consults at reasonable rates

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

We are cursed to live the Tuttle-McMullen Town Names incident again and again, forever...

The deep irony being of course that they did an episode which included directions on how to pronounce the exact town's name! Idk, if you're new maybe listen to the back catalog

https://t.co/0ZZjvbKLaq Sorry late to this but like, what? Why does this exist???

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

@WinooskiNormal From what little I can see it seems like another example of the well trodden path from probably a "2008-ish Ron Paul type guy" to a 2020's murderous white supremacist. Many such cases

"My god! And what on earth do you call this act?!"

"The Democrats!"

BREAKING: Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger will not seek a fifth term next Town Meeting Day, ending a nearly 12-year tenure leading the Queen City. #btv https://t.co/VUhFjlGxny

The man posts from a rose gold MacBook. HE CANNOT BE TRUSTED

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

Hey Gerry! So sorry to hear you got that new surgery where they replace your brain with a golden retriever's. Hope recovery is going. Glad to see you can still name search like a little dork.

It's a shame Gerald Malloy joined this site right as it is dying

He has the heart of a true poster: never backing down despite being radically incoherent. Drawing non-existent connections while attempting to make completely arational rhetorical points

VPBR wishes him well

@thevpo1 The man is making a list of enemies and we are definitely all on it lol

In honor of Fred Tuttle's 104th birthday, I present the 1998 GOP Senate Primary in Vermont, in which Tunbridge farmer Fred Tuttle beat businessman Jack McMullen in one of the most interesting campaigns in #vtpoli history.

@UnsolicitedVT @WinooskiNormal I personally always feel safest when a guy with weird resentments and guns uses the word "heritage"

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

Let someone who has actually read a goddamn book on air, you cowards!

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

It's almost as if class is more usefully understood as an objective relation to the means of production and capital as such, instead getting answers by asking random people to talk about a bunch of vague, poorly understood, possibly contradictory cultural signifiers

[Vermont Public @vermontpublic]

"What class are you?" It's a question that Vermont Public reporter Erica Heilman has been asking people for a series about class and cultural divides that we are airing all week. In this fourth installment, Erica speaks with former state legislator.

This is the best thing our competition over at Vermont Public has made since the avant garde masterpieces of Enzo Di Maio from the 80's

It's decently weird, but in the words of wet noodle Sir Keir Starmer "I would encourage them to go further"

Wow @ktyschwnk latest piece in @thebafflermag on #btv is one of the only honest assessments on how local #vermont media feeds into pro-police fear mongering, as residents and politicians try to criminalize poverty.

[The Baffler @thebafflermag]

Back in November, the New York Times’ pearl-clutching desk reported on a crime wave in Burlington, VT. The story revealed virtually nothing about the reality on the ground—but uncovered a great deal about the conservative backlash to the 2020 protests.

No definition, no methodology, just NPR pondering. Amateur cultural anthropology for people who've never read a serious book in their lives.

[VPBR @VermontPBR]

"But they are actually talking about class for once, this has to be good right?"

Absolutely not!

*Sniff, sniff* *circa 2012 Zizek noise* When we think we escape it *sniff*... we are at that point the deepest within ideology!" *sniff*
