The man with two brains
The New York Daily News reports that Mayor Michael Bloomberg is sticking to his guns on his Manhattan Jets stadium dreams, telling reporters: "If you're against the stadium, you're against the Olympics." The New York Post reports that Bloomberg for the first time said he'd "consider" siting a Olympic stadium in Queens instead. Bluuuh?
For the real story - regardless of where Bloomberg's mouth is at today, the Jets stadium plan is piling up obstacles like Billy Joel on a driver's ed course - you'll have to turn to a paper like the Village Voice, and I don't say that just because they employ me to write about it.
But other than your occasional columns, the Voice has been nowhere on this issue.
