State of NY folds its' flimsy tent and withdraws. An utter joke as taxpayers fleeced for a pointless witch hunt and TRF forced to waste $750,000 defending itself against baseless charges.

i'm glad it was resolved, with prejudice, but the financial cost was ridiculous.
how many horses could have been helped with that 750k? it's too bad they can't recoup the legal costs for a baseless suit being filed.

I was rereading that letter from 2012, thinking about how much those jerks cost TRF, and it's jacking up my blood pressure. I can feel it.

This is never gonna happen, but if enough people dumped their subcription to the Times and applied the money they'd have spent on it or money they'd have donated to Cuomo's campaign and donate that to TRF instead, we can make up for the lost of funds and give a little karma. I'll give the Times some credit though. Their paper makes for excellent packing material.
