Episode #596: They Go Round The Outside
First Broadcast: 2/6/12
After a slight digression about the Super Bowl and other sports, we discuss the 2012 primaries, Mitt Romney's extreme wealth, and how long it would take you to make what he makes. On the show, I said it would take the average American 310 years to make the amount that Romney currently has as his net worth--but I was a little off. Assuming the average American household makes $50,000 a year, and Mitt Romey has a net worth between $190 million and $250 million dollars, it would take the average American between 3800 and 5000 years to make the same amount. Either way, he's still a dick.
So, what is Free New York anyway? The simple answer is that it's a
this neat little
public access TV show on
Manhattan Neighborhood Network which I co-produce with the
tremendous help of my camerawoman/editor/everything else,
Kim. The complicated answer
is that it's a project of mine to broadcast opinions and events which
don't always appear within "the mainstream media" (like The New York Times,
the major networks, local radio, etc.), and so far I think it's been working.
If you think I'm doing a good job--or not--and you feel
like sending me snail mail, the address is:
Free New York

Tompkins Square Station

You can also email me at fny@freenewyork.net, which should get to me a lot faster than the snail mail.
Check back later. I'm sure something will turn up.

Here you can view an op-ed I sent to the New York Times, which they never printed. Maybe I'll add an even larger essay in the future.
