Not unexpectedly, Jaleel Bianco seizes upon Councilor Ercellin's evasion of his call for his action.
Challenger Bianco tweets a stinging rebuke:
As Ercellini's advisor, you suggest that he should not respond to the specifics of the tweet but should try to discredit Bianco who is gaining some traction in the local social media. Your client agrees and tells you to review Bianco's background (see the first blog post) and capitalize on some fact, no matter how insignificant, that will make him seem less connected to Dawes or less able to suggest ways to manage the proposed Triple F store development.
You do some of your own investigating and uncover a note in Ercellini's college files suggesting that Bianco had once failed to properly and fully acknowledge all sources used in an academic paper and was on academic probation for three months during his freshman year at MIT. Do you use this information?
Your job: publish at least two tweets using an ad hominem attack (that is truthful) against Bianco. You may publish multple tweets to meet your objective.
