I'll be satisfied when I see a link with guilty or innocent, not alleged or accused....
Well that won't come for quite some time, if at all.
The Governor called for an investigation.
Unless workers come forward and give their name, it's all just heresay.
But it seems credible enough to get the Governor involved.
My aunt lives in Manhattan and said the plow came down her street but only passed through..didn't actually plow the street. Maybe they didn't do the side streets..who knows.
The question I asked was what news site is credible to you ?
You've dismissed all the other links as fairy tales.
There are several credible sources of news. PBS, BBC, NBC, ABC, CNN, NPR, Was5t Post, NY Times .... I may not always agree with all of them, but they do hold to some journalistic standards, that are credible.

That is exactly what was going on all over NJ too. Driving around but not plowing.

The investigation/story is just getting started. Based on the whistle blowers who have come forward and the very suspicious inaction/mess THIS storm has caused (which other storms of similar severity did not), it is pretty clear the union was up to dirty tricks.
If only such caution to condemn could be counted on in other stories, usually centered around a rightie. We'll certainly remember this statement.

I guess the governor and mayor are not credible - they have both called for an investigation.
Lets wait to see all the facts on this case before passing judgement. Certainly the response was very poor, and if the poor response was indeed caused by a deliberate slowdown, those involved, especially the bosses should be held responsible and prosecuted. However, we do need to get all the facts out before passing judgement. The Post has had a tendency to rush stories, to rush rumors, only for it to turn out to be false.
If/when those union bosses can be proven to have influenced a work "slow down" they should be charged with 2nd degree manslaughter for the deaths of the infant and woman whom EMS was unable to reach!
New York Sanitation workers are a great example of the first arm of Obamacare. The newborn and elderly are disposable to Socialists.

I think it's pretty clear also. I find it hard to believe that it is a coincidence that the same exact things were going on in NJ. Think about it, unions are national, members from NY and NJ were called and told to do this. Like I said previously, a local radio station here in NJ had some union members on the air saying that they definitely got a call from the union and they were told what and what not to do. They were told to either call out or slow down.
If there were some validity to it, a news organization would report it.
A news organization did report it - the NYPost. Just because it is not one of your sympathetic favorites does not mean it is not a news organization. Even you should be able to figure that out.

Your original post was making a statement that this story is true. You later conveniently modified it to look like you were just reporting on the assertion. The truth on the issue is as yet unknown, the investigation will root it out. If there was some plot by some, it will be found out. So no, your original post and associated link, were not credible and not surprising, a mirror image of the FOX reports.
