The Spin

Narrative A

The mayor has shown his lack of experience and has proven he's totally overwhelmed by this infrastructure crisis. He was slow to communicate to the community and leaving people in the dark on this matter put them at risk. This could cost him his job when reelection rolls around.

Newsweek

Narrative B

The mayor admits he may have had some missteps as this situation unfolded, but he's facing it head-on and doing what he can to communicate with his constituents and get things back to normal as soon as possible. If people want to be mad, they should show frustration over the precarious state of Atlanta's unacceptably dilapidated infrastructure rather than the mayor.
