**Horse hooey (December 3, 2015: New York Daily News)**

Brooklyn: Wealthy Voicer Steve Nislick deigns to show willingness to discuss a “carriage horse compromise” and denies any financial interest in the issue. Apart from the fact that nobody elected Nislick to sit at any negotiating table, he should be reminded that his shady organization NYCLASS was recently fined $26,000 by the Campaign Finance Board for illegal campaign contributions. He should also recall that it was he who financed the development of the failed antique replica electric car to the tune of $450,000 to replace the horse carriages, then offered the carriage owners the “wonderful opportunity” to dump the horses and carriages they owned and put themselves in debt to his organization to purchase the e-cars (or that he wanted to punch a News photographer at said car’s unveiling!). To suggest he has not been personally financially involved with this issue from the get-go is very unconvincing. Ruth Moore
