M.J. Murphy

Blogger and media commentator.

Contributor Biography

Canadian politics on-line is a low-down, dirty bloodsport, and the political blogosphere is to MSM journalism what LSD is to weak coffee. M.J.Murphy – The BigCityLib – is this mad scene's bravest and most intrepid chronicler.

With a background in PR, IT, and Corporate Research, his blog posts hit every base: from the birth of the new media, the death of the old, the manoeuvres of the AGW Denialist movement, the intersection of power and cleavage, the assault on Canadian human rights laws by an unholy alliance of MSM journalists and Neo-Nazis, to Cryptozoology and conventional politics and its fun-house-mirror internet counterpart.

Clever, punchy, over-the-top, and frequently news-making; The BigCityLib puts the "gone" in gonzo.
