Protesters cost N.Y.at least $2 million; park not cleaned since Sept. 16
Friday, October 7, 2011 at 9:20AM I wrote this on Thursday as the lede to my column at Examiner.com:
“The gullible kids are in the park, in the hands of big union organizers, hatin’ on the rich and spreading any number of communicable illnesses. Don’t believe that last assertion? Watch a few videos of the protesters sharing food and alternative cigarettes. I predict a bedbug or lice outbreak any day now, followed by some strains of hepatitis, tummy bugs and respiratory illnesses. By the way, those fumes emitted from generators running all those pricey laptops aren’t good for your lungs.”
On Friday, media began to report on what I thought was obvious—the consequences of so many bodies in roughly 33,000 square feet of space.
