Can you help spread the word on this?
Check out this latest amazing scandal by the Mayor, who got his first taste of bad press only this year, with the blizzard, Cathie Black, and CityTime, and the media started criticizing him a lot because they were not expecting any more large cash payments from Mr. Bloomberg via record campaign ads.
So unscrupulous politicians then buy "ads" in the media with taxdollars to chill dissent. I've never seen anything like this in my life of monitoring media.
One ad would be shocking (b/c the mayor said NYC was super-BROKE), since he said this is more important than schools or firehouses or libraries.
Two ads would be illegal, as there is no logic to the same ad twice on the same page; it must be a bribe any way you slice it.
But FIVE ads on one single page? How much did that cost taxpayers? And those monies were spent to advertise something everyone already knows about? The mayor said he was going to run NYC like a business. I'd love to see the last time Pepsi mailed out 5 million flyers to blanket 100% of homes in all 5 boros, and then bought 5 ads per page in the press to advertise that the 5 million flyers the readers are about to get in their mailboxes. That person would be fired by Pepsi in seconds.
Boss Tweed wasn't slightly this dishonest or deranged.
The ads say right there: "CHECK THE MAIL FOR YOUR RECYCLE FLYER"!!
Theses ads even ADMIT they're unnecessary and REDUNDANT, because Bloomberg spent tens of millions just on sending flyers to every apartment in the 5 boros! Boss Tweed did the same thing. If you BRIBE your opponents, everyone stays mum.

Oh and Jack, we all saw Steve Rattner, mr. Pay to Play, who pleaded the 5th what 63 times, Mike’s money manager best friend and the owner of the NYTimes and NYDN got his very own op piece in the new york times.... Steve Rattner too rich to go to jail. Mike and pals get very special treatment from the media including Christine Quinn.
p.s. There have even been Bloomberg ad’s on my blog although I did not want them!!!! Ugh!
