Wikipedia page edited at midnight after alleged hit-and-run claims the former MPP is an ‘avid cyclist’ who founded a cycling advocacy group.
As if the story about former Ontario Attorney General Michael Bryant’s alleged hit-and-run with a cyclist couldn’t get any more bizarre, RT LeChow noticed that Mr. Bryant’s Wikipedia entry was edited at midnight today to add that he is an “avid cyclist” and founded the activist group “Shared Highways” — an organisation that doesn’t seem to have any Google footprint.
UPDATE: Thanks to @torontodan for pointing out that the Wikipedia edit was not a case of astroturfing, but a joke by Wiki vandals at the former Minister’s expense. Shared Highways In Toronto doesn’t exist, but it would have a great acronym if it did.
