Is this the worst item on Facebook Marketplace in Winnipeg?
And why is Kevin Klein selling his jean jacket anyway?

The Winnipeg Sun's obsession with Nahanni Fontaine
That’s 3 front pages in less than 3 weeks. I know Nahanni likes attention, but the fascination that Heather and Kevin Klein seem to have with her every move is getting weird. It's also funny that the Sun has to use 4 year old file photos and images swiped from Facebook because they can't afford to hire a photographer or real reporters.

The Sun isn't even trying to be a real newspaper anymore. Here's today's edition. More than 500 words of gobbledygook filler text on page 3. How does that make it to print? They use AI to write half the content, but does Kevin Klein not even read his own paper? Did the AI go on strike?

Someone mentioned this to me recently, and I had to see the pics to believe it.
Fifteen years ago, the Winnipeg Sun covered Peter Nygard’s daughter’s wedding like it was a royal event. Front page photo featuring the private jet, a giant two-page spread, breathless details about the dress, the necklace, the food, and the “10-foot ice bar.”
Sam Katz was there, because of course. So was then Winnipeg Sun editor Kevin Klein, who had to include a photo of him and Peter Nygard chumming it up.
What’s odd is that Klein says he had a “business relationship” with Nygard, but here he is a full year before he started working for Nygard, attending a family wedding. Totally normal.
This was long after allegations about Nygard’s “lifestyle” were well known, so it’s kind of gross that a newspaper would still be fawning over the guy.
This ran a few months after William and Kate got married, so the Sun really leaned into the “royal wedding” comparison. I suppose if you cast Nygard as Prince Andrew then it tracks.
I don't even know what would qualify as a Winnipeg royal wedding these days: Cheryl Lashek marrying Scott Arniel? Buzz and Boomer making it official?
