Hip-hop hooey (July 23, 2015: New York Daily News)

Woodside: I find it absolutely mind-boggling and appalling that hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons would equate the horse carriage industry with slavery and the Holocaust. To compare the dedicated drivers and caretakers of these magnificent animals to the likes of Adolf Hitler or slave traders is preposterous. If Simmons actually stepped out of his liberal limousine and visited the stables, he would see immigrants from all over the globe who love these animals as their own children and would never do anything detrimental to their health. Take your blinders off, Simmons. Madelyn O’Boyle
