The New Yorker Looks at San Francisco

The New Yorker gets some things right about San Francisco but also falls for a misleading narrative about politics in the city.

I probably pay too much attention to how San Francisco is portrayed in the national media. The constant attacks on San Francisco and the description of it as some kind of crime ridden dystopia from Fox News and other right wing propaganda outlets no longer bother me. I have come to expect that from the far right. However, when more reality based major national media outlets cover San Francisco I pay a little bit more attention.
