If a 2008 Florida law that required condos to plan for repairs had still been in place, "this never would have happened," said the legislator who sponsored the law

Should we inform the poor, lil' benighted clo that this law was repealed by the Democrat who is trying to run against Governor DeSantis in the upcoming election - Charlie Crist?!
BWHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
Governor oddly not named in story of repealed law that could have more quickly repaired Surfside condo

NBC 6 in South Florida has a story out Thursday about a Florida law that could have more quickly repaired the collapsed Surfside condo had it not been repealed. We saw a lot of people tweeting that the story completely left out the name of the governor who repealed that law, and sure enough, when we read it, we couldn’t find the name either. The only clue is that it was repealed in 2010.

AG ~ It’s weird that this article doesn’t mention that @CharlieCrist, the Democrat trying to run against DeSantis in the upcoming election, was the Governor that repealed that law.
Weird, huh?!

Gurgun ~ And by weird, you mean totally predictable.
Christina Pushaw ~ Why did they “forget” to include that?
Christina Pushaw ~ Have you contacted @CharlieCrist for comment? He was the Governor who signed the repeal of this law. Interesting how you forgot to mention that, @nbc6.
Rai Masuda ~ Where’s the comment from the Florida Governor at the time, @CharlieCrist? Seems pretty important to the story.
Any thoughts @jonschuppe @PhilPrazan? Or was getting comment from the Governor in charge at the time too much journalism for you?
Lost in Space ~ Why is it random people on Twitter know more about a story than the press?
JuanDiez1218 ~ Because they actually care to seek out the truth and not tell narratives or made up stories.
Birdland ~ This is a classic case of media misinformation.
Pravda.
It's not as much what they say, but what they don't say. Don't think for a minute that it's not intentional. It is. All of it is.
Newsgatherer ~ Thank Charlie Christ. Where is he? Can you interview him about this?
Seems like Ron DeSantis’s name would be in the headline had he been the one to repeal it.
You can bet your last dollar that, if that had been the case, it most certainly would have been in NBC's headline.
