When reporting today’s amNewYork “The No. 7 Switch” a couple of choice quotes had to be cut from the story to allow it to fit on the page.
Here’s my favorite from Gene Russianoff, senior attorney with the Straphangers Campaign, talking about MTA chairman Peter Kalikow’s seemingly relectuance to demand a higher price for the West Side Yards:
“No wonder why he went bankrupt. He rules it out in his own mind before he tries it on the buyer. That’s pretty poor bargaining.”
Kalikow filed for bankruptcy in 1991.
