All good news all the time
NY Press
by Azi Paybarah
The Press covers Newark's unabashed efforts to pay for good news, turns its attention to the gold standard of PR rags...
Before getting too uppity about wacky Newark Mayor Sharpe James and the gang across the river, though, let's pay tribute to our own agit-prop rag, the occasionally-printed Brooklyn Standard (again, no italics warranted), which is dedicated to providing in-depth coverage to the superb efforts of their benevolent parent company, Forest City Ratner, to build a stadium in the borough.
... and then takes a swipe at the NY Times's "warm, fuzzy stories" on the Ratner deal, suggesting, "Perhaps they could use the Brooklyn Standard as a wire source."
