Well you certainly get that impression from the wikipedia entry and the blogosphere, but the fact is, we have no idea if this is true or not. None. Zero.
There are simply no reliable sources of any kind that would lead us to think that. Reading between the lines here, I think he sounds like he is probably not the least bit unlikable as a person. He's a union leader. He called for an unpopular strike. There is no evidence in the media or anywhere else that he is "disliked by the majority of those who know about him".
To a city it is an easy way to vent their frustration. If google results are Mr Kinnear's biggest concern right now I think his union's members will be added to the list of people who don't like him.
Why would you speculate on such a thing? Hasn't this guy had enough abuse already? To be clear: I am not acting on any complaint from him. I found this situation randomly.
We have. So far the only results have been an experiment that fails to meet even a low level of scientific rigour and and a bunch of power tripping BLPers. As long as you continue to look for top down solutions expect much the same result.
I am not looking for top down solutions. I am looking for thoughtful people within the community to stop blaming the victim and start looking for sustainable solutions that will work.
