A p.r. man's fate: fighting the West Side Stadium, flacking for the Brooklyn Arena
Atlantic Yards Report
Norman Oder provides some history for us about Forest City Ratner spokesman Loren Riegelhaupt. While he did p.r. work for Madison Square Garden, he seemed to know a waste of taxpayer money when he saw it:
"Whether it is the most expensive football stadium ever or the most expensive protest area ever, the West Side Stadium is a colossal waste of $600 million in taxpayer resources and that's what the vast majority of New Yorkers are really protesting against."
With a different employer, perhaps he's now in favor of colossal wastes of taxpayer resources.
