1639025661615693826 | . @brandongonez continued his journey of success when he acquired @nowtoronto magazine, becoming one of only a handful of Black Canadian media owners. But the move came with critics. Read about how Gonez navigates it in the latest from @marcus_roi. https://t.co/YX6EwXoSVh https://t.co/j49afaUgol | 5 |
1639054995646554112 | @ByBlacks @brandongonez @nowtoronto @marcus_roi Impoverishing long-time workers in order to turn a 40+ year old voice into a clickbait farm hardly seems worth it. @brandongonez, @GonezMedia, and the new staff of @nowtoronto should be ashamed of themselves. | 2 |
1639057374148460545 | @ByBlacks @brandongonez @nowtoronto @marcus_roi @GonezMedia His space of "purity" has run disrespectful photos of unhoused torontonians and asked whether readers think trans people deserve rights. His notion of "purity" is to exploit the most vulnerable in Toronto for clicks. Any admiration you have for the man is grossly misplaced. | 2 |
1639058161066995713 | Don't believe for a second that @brandongonez had nothing to do with workers not getting paid. The *steep* discount he got on the sale price of @nowtoronto was paid for with those stolen wages. He's a crook. Same as the last crooks. https://t.co/uH5mdEXNcL | 2 |
