Pols outraged over, but not the Trib

From CBS New York:

The answer to your questions, Crapper, may be given this afternoon when Assemblywoman Meng and Ann Jawin appear at a press conference outside Queens Borough Hall. 3PM. Topic: Sex-trafficking.

Stay tuned, folks.

Where's the piss and vinegar outrage of Queens residents?

In deep rem sleep, I suppose.

They should be out there picketing the Jawin fete.

I'll spring for the torches and pitchforks.

Why should pols be outraged over the Q Trib's "massage parlor" advertising?

Those who aren't using the Parkside Group are using Multi Media as their political consultants.

In addition to making whore ad mega bucks...Michael Nussbaum probably gets some "massagee" perks from those lovely Asian babes pictured on the back pages of his news rag.

And can you just visualize Mike Schenkler...lying on his back as naked as beached whale...being serviced?

Of course Ackerman gets his "ladies" delivered to his door.

Deep "rem" sleep? More like deep "DEM" sleep.

I'm surprised that Halloran hasn't gone after the Tribune's whore advertising, especially because of the biased way they promoted Kevin Kim against him. Doesn't matter if he likes or dislikes the ads, it could have just been payback.

The Voice and The Spa's are all involved in the same game! Why is one exempt from public outrage and the other is not. Shut down the Voice, then shut down the Spas.

It's the internet combined with the sex trade. Does anyone really think they can make either go away? If you shut down backpage, 'frontpage' or 'sidepage' or 'gregslist' will quickly take its place.

The reason that the Trib is ignored is that its in Queens.

NYC is basically four boroughs that are trying to move forward, and Queens that is, well, Queens.

As far as everyone else is concerned, its a no go zone.

As I understand it, if we are cut off and clueless it means more goodies for everyone else. After all, if you try to raise the bar here, everyone will take a cue from the benevolent dispensers of ice cream and snatch inertia from the jaws of victory.

After Queens legendary pitchfork and torch crowd works you over, the body (if found) will be face down in Newtown Creek.

In other words, don't go where angels fear to tread - don't waste your time getting involved.

In Queens, if something is to be cleaned up or improved, the politicians will let everyone know that its okay.
