You actually buying that?
I don't know. Yesterday it was all done. But today...

"Owner Jon Berberian told NBC 10 he has no plans to sell or close the theater for good. Berberian is in the process of generating the funds needed for roof repairs and scaffolding inside the theater.

He hopes the theater will only be closed for two months."

Something happened since yesterday. The Channel 10 article was changed. All of the news sources, including Channel 10, said it was closing June 9. None of this "temporary" stuff.



Channel 12 and GoLocal haven't updated their articles.

The only thing we "know" changed was how Channel 10 reported the story. For all we know, they updated it at request of the owner (whether his intentions changed or not). Or his intentions could have not changed, but had second thoughts over how he wanted to "present" the public with this information. What we do know, is this dude is a sketchball and I'm not going to believe anything he says until I see it.
