Seeing double in tix-fix story

UPDATE: The Daily News has updated its tic-fix story to include the following statement:

"The alleged preferential treatment was first reported in the Riverdale Press."

Thanks! No harm no foul!


They say imitation is the fondest form of flattery.

If that’s the case, then thank you Daily News, we really appreciate the compliment!

The day after The Riverdale Press published its exclusive story about a retired cop who got special treatment during his Five-O drunk driving arrest, the News had an oddly similar story about the exact same thing. (Gasp!)

Apparently, the Daily News doesn’t believe in giving credit where credit is due. No biggie Daily, it’s enough for us to know that our reporting made it citywide … kinda.
