The Times Gives Prokhorov a Sunday Feature (No Mention of Atlantic Yards)

Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn

The Times has a Sunday magazine feature story on Bruce Ratner's Nets/arena bailout partner Mikhail Prokhorov. We haven't read through it yet, but skimming reveals something rather astonishing: in 8,298 words, "Atlantic Yards" are two words that never appear. (There is also no mention that The New York Times Company and Prokhorov's partner Bruce Ratner were business partners in the construction of the company's new-ish midtown headquarters.)
