THE IFC MEDIA PROJECT: Anatomy of a Story
Huffington Post
By Meghan O'Hara
In last week's episode of THE IFC MEDIA PROJECT, we looked at the story of Atlantic Yards, a massive real estate development in Brooklyn, NY, and we analyzed why New York City's three major papers had failed to critically evaluate and report on the project.
We revealed how the Editor-in-Chief of the New York Daily News had bowed to pressure from the project's powerful developer. The Editor, Martin Dunn, pulled a tough reporter off the story. The Daily News still hasn't commented, but New York's other media is beginning to take note [LINK: http://www.politickerny.com/1053/fomer-daily-news-reporter-claims-atlantic-yards] and maybe soon, the story will change.
