Chief David Kunkle Hearts Eric Celeste

Remember when Eric Celeste used to work here? Those were good times, eh? That was back when he was a journalist and did journalism. Now, as we’ve reported in this space, he’s a finger-gun-shooting salesman. So it took me down memory lane when a FrontBurnervian passed along a link to an Unfair Park story about Chief David Kunkle’s retirement, in which he said:

“One thing I was going to tell the media, to give them tomorrow, by the way, is the article in the September 2004 of the Observer written by Eric Celeste. Because a lot of the people who cover us don’t understand the history and environment I came into in 2004. That article does a good job talking about internal politics and external issues affecting the department.”

It pains me to post this.

  1. Not as much as it pained me to click on the link to Eric’s article.

  2. Weird, since I just had drinks with RAB, and he told me he was too busy kissing client ass to click on said link.

    As for Chief Kunkle: game recognizes game.

  3. And here I thought reading Celeste’s article was painful. Imagine the agony of drinks. To be charitable, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he was saving his “game” for Kunkle.
