Mayor Mark on FOX CT Discussing his Twitter Fame

Both CNN & FOX CT have caught the @MayorMark vibe.  

By now you are familiar with Mayor Mark's snow day "taunts," (aka tweets) as he calls them. Nothing is sacred and his snow day tweets are often teasing and filled with pop culture references.  This week, he referenced Dillon High School (Friday Night Lights) and Screech at Bayside High (Saved by the Bell) before announcing a 2-hour delay for Danbury students. 

On Wednesday, March 5, CNN.com documented his tweeting in a new story, "Mayor taunts students over snow days." To read it, please click here.

And, of course Connecticut media had to get in on the @MayorMark action. Today at 4pm Mayor Mark was the subject of a FOX CT story. FOX CT anchor began, "Joining me now is the hip and cool Mayor Mark Boughton". 

"When I started doing social media I said, I'm going to be myself verses trying to just put up press releases," said Boughton. "I've done everything from getting kids to register to vote to torture them about whether there will be a snow day," he continues.
