Brooklyn has stadium issues of its own to deal with
Metro: Coverage of the Councilwoman Letita James's press conference with Community Board Members who are frustrated with Forest City Ratner's (FCR) hurried attempts to drat a Community Benefits Agreement.
FCR vice-president Bruce Bender has raised the rhetoric by attacking James directly, calling her a "one-note gadfly."
Hmm... she must be doing something right. Unfortunately FCR's PR campaign comes straight from Karl Rove's playbook. During the past month FCR has worked hard to try to divide the community along several lines: new arrivals and old timers, rich and poor and whites and minorities. Now they have moved on to character attacks.
