the Brooklyn Pravda Tabloid hawkers swarmed the area this weekend. More on that, and who pays the hawkers, here:

Does anyone know where I can get a copy?

I enjoyed reading the last edition and, although it was mostly cheerleading for the project, found some newsworthy items. For instance, an article written by Rev. Daughtry, a signer of the CBA, reveals that the health center will be named after his father.

The reason that they are being handed out is that the last issue disappeared pretty quickly - only to be spotted later lining litter boxes in the homes of many DDDB members.

The people handing out papers are probably getting paid for distributing a couple stacks. I like to help them out by taking about a hundred for my own purposes. They seem to appreciate the help.

There are several blogs and other websites that talk about these papers. You can start with http://timesratnerreport.blogspot.com/ and DDDb will probably come out with a press release pretty soon.
