The Other Detroit-Windsor Crossing
Today’s Detroit News ran an article on millionaire Matty Moroun the owner of the Ambassador Bridge. He is not well liked in Windsor for purchasing up West-end homes by the bridge and other waterfront property along the Detroit River to protect his cash-cow, The Ambassador Bridge.
Upon learning about one of America’s richest, President George W. Bush (the one that almost got head in the head with a shoe) responded, “Why don’t I know this guy? If I did, I probably would have carried Michigan.” I don’t think so!!
Read about how this one man can control the commerce of two nations. The article can be found at the following address: http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20081215/BIZ/812150328.

Welcome heads-up to worthy front-page report . . . in The Detroit News, not the Free Press.
Though they share business operations and a downtown building under a federally approved Joint Operating Agreement, separate newsroom staffs produce separate editorial content.
Well, at least for now.

Dear Mr. Stamm,
Thank you for your comment. I apologize for mis-identifying the Detroit News. I have corrected my posting.
Cheers!
