here's the thing that stands out about Bagayoko's bravery to me: he may not be immediately legible as the mayor to cops. there's nothing stopping him from getting hurt but he's stepping into the breach anyway.

NEW: In January, I was sent a threatening and absurd email by Bobby Kotick's lawyers It was unsettling I've wanted to tell readers about it, but didn't want to step on Mikhail's toes. Now that his report is out, here's my experience of standing up for my work www.gamefile.news/p/bobby-koti...
Bobby Kotick’s lawyers sent me a bad email (and later apologized)
Part of a broader strategy by the former Activision CEO to shape press coverage

This can fuck off entirely.
