MEDIA HAS BECOME THE COURT

For all the other moments #MeToo has wrought, the Patrick Brown story is seminal: A political leader is cut down like a sapling in the forest in a matter of hours, and none of his colleagues, in and outside of the Ontario Conservative party, and including the Ontario premier and the prime minister of Canada, have one word to say in the defence of fair play or the presumption of innocence.
This — not the anonymous allegations of Brown’s accusers from the shadows — is what is shocking and disgraceful about this story.
