Yeas, nays over plan for Nets
NY Daily News

An update by the only local daily paper that has provided regular news coverage on Bruce Ratner's Atlantic Yards proposal. The article covers:
* public reaction to Gehry's latest design,
* the MTA Railyard bid deadline,
* the most recent tally of property controlled by Ratner, and
* a list of the remaining hurdles for the project.
NoLandGrab: We mention that The News has provided regular coverage of the project because, as other media organizations begin to cover the issue, it will take a while for reporters to get up to speed. Expect misinformation and lots of high-priced PR spin during the next couple of weeks.
Generally, the Daily News has been accurate during the past year or so.
