BUSINESS OWNER CHALLENGING THE NEGATIVE NARRATIVE AROUND PORTLAND #portland OR - The owner of Old Town Pizza & Brewing in downtown Portland is hoping to flip the negative reputation the city has garnered, by spreading positivity. Adam Milne decided to do so by making tshirts with the message “Believe in Portland” on the back with proceeds from every purchase going to a different non-profit each month.

On the bright side of my romp through #NBC affiliates, Maggie Vespa, who was once with #KGW in #Portland, had another great segment on #MSNBC, this time from #Iowa covering #Mississippi River flooding. She's a pro at covering disasters and doing in-depth investigations.
If Maggie knocks at your door out of the blue, you may as well grab your emergency supplies and round up the kids. Whatever she's there for, it's not going to be your day.
Maggie Vespa was a reporter for #KGW in #Portland who specialized in investigative journalism. She left the station. Now she's doing network news segments on #MSNBC, some out of #Chicago, if I'm not mistaken. She's exceptional. Portland has the best newscasts, for the most part. I have no idea what goes on with that Sinclair station.
