Support the independent voice of Miami and help keep the future of New Times free.
Back in January Gov. Rick Scott tried to connect with the people of
Florida through Twitter. He, of course, got called a "jackass" and
decided to sign off shortly after. Now he's giving this whole interwebs
thing another try and will be hosting a Facebook Townhall tonight.
The internet event will kick off tonight at 7:15 pm. Though it won't be hosted officially on Facebook, but rather through a Facebook plug-in on the Governor's official site. So get your questions ready and point your browser here later tonight.
The event will only last half an hour, but the Gov will try and answer as many questions as possible. We just want to know why he hates free trains so much.
Though, if it's anything like the Twitter townhall, don't expect the Gov to give very committal or in-depth answers to anything.

Keep Miami New Times Free... Since we started Miami New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Miami, and we would like to keep it that way.

Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism.
