Another brilliant salvo on the State & NYRA from Tom Noonan...
http://tenoonan.com/2012/05/30/this-...w-york-racing/ So, there you have it. This current controversy has been going on since the Racing & Wagering Board released an “Interim Audit” on April 26. What new facts have come out since then? I cannot think of one, but that has not stopped a constant barrage questioning the integrity and character of anyone ever associated with NYRA. We have a Governor and his staff who engineered a coup with an entity established by law, taking actions of questionable legality, and by engaging in threats and assaults on the integrity and character of NYRA Board members without citing any evidence justifying the attacks. We have a media that has gone along all too willingly, either because they do not want to ask rather obvious questions, or because NYRA has become a convenient punching bag. None of these players have identified anything they would do differently. And this is the environment in which we are to believe that “integrity” will be the focus for New York racing? I know I won’t be holding my breath waiting for their changes.
