1641575242245222402 | This is irresponsible and gross, it reads as if @nowtoronto interviewed @kailahunte, when in fact she didn’t find out about this article until it was posted. I wish Now had been allowed to die a dignified death, this zombie Now is rancid. https://t.co/TpgTwIBbWE | 7 |
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 |
1639442776881340417 | Thank you @broadcastbre and @nowtoronto for the interview about #WorldDownSyndromeDay: https://t.co/fbuXmOjbhO I'm continuing to go into schools and engage with teachers and students about Down Syndrome and learning differences . . . @TorontoStar @CanadaTonight @metromorning | 4 |
1638579967058477056 | @nowtoronto Here's the real #NewsYouCanUse Now, March 21, 2023! 1. @Nowtoronto stole months of wages and labour from their employees. 2. @Nowtoronto busted its long-running union and restaffed with non-union scabs. | 2 |
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 |
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 |
1641525089236557836 | @nowtoronto This story is not about me being a good samaritan. It's not about me at all. It's about that parent and their needs not being met. It's about the systemic failure of our governments to prioritize people riding and working on transit in a way that centres their rights as humans. | 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 |
1641524208428630016 | @nowtoronto I wish you would have gotten in touch with me before writing this. :/ | 2 |
1639054639772360704 | @ByBlacks @brandongonez @nowtoronto @marcus_roi What was worth saving about Now wasn't a logo or a website — it was an editorial commitment to tell the stories that happen in toronto. Instead his team have insulted the homeless, questioned whether trans people should have rights, and more. | 1 |

1638728225999273989 | @AtGtheatre @nowtoronto with all due respect — after @nowtoronto stole months of wages from their employees and busted their long running union — they should be the last media outlet that you're excited to receive support from. In fact — they stole over half a year's wages from @glennsumi | 21 |
1641553580141281282 | @vickysanderson @nowtoronto It’s the 6ixxBuzzification of journalism for me really. I also don’t appreciate the gendered terminology when is explicitly did not gender the other party involved in this incident. | 10 |

1641117959035797513 | @nowtoronto And residents have already launched a campaign to ensure he never sees the inside of that office https://t.co/9b4EE9T343 | 7 |
