"Filthybuffalo’s mission is to expose the seedy underbelly of our beleaguered, infuriating but beloved hometown, Buffalo, New York. Our city has a history worth celebrating, a recent past worth critically examining and a present worth getting madder than hell over. And madder than hell we are. We’re mad that Buffalo is a national laughingstock. Mad that we’re the third poorest city in the US. Mad that every time it snows some hack from The Weather Channel shows up and further cements our image as a barren, snowy wasteland. We’re mad that our elected officials fail to represent us and that our professional media fail to call them out on it. Mad that the Bills are taking advantage of us while they scheme on a lucrative relocation. We’re mad (and embarrassed) that so few people can muster the energy to wear something other than a sweatshirt and sneakers. We’re mad that entrenched special interests get first dibs while citizens/voters/tax payers wait at the back of the line. But most of all, we’re mad at ourselves for putting up with it." Read More
