Earlier this week, on Tuesday to be exact, the Utica Mayor's office issued an unusual press release criticizing what they viewed as unfair media coverage of the administration in the Utica Observer-Dispatch. I had planned on Fisking the release this evening, but it appears that sometime this afternoon it was removed from the website for reasons unknown. I've emailed Mayor Roefaro's press representative, his nephew Angelo Roefaro, requesting a copy of the misplaced missive.
Hopefully I'll hear back from him tomorrow.
Update: Request denied. It appears I'll have to make a formal FOIL request if I want to see it again.
