Aside from what other posters have said (a better way to do this would be to note in the report the exclusion of certain data, and why it was excluded), the way they purged the listings is particularly damning: "No similar event took place in other cities in North America or elsewhere." If this were them legitimately cleaning up their listings, and not misleading regulators, you'd imagine they'd have taken similar action across their entire database. The fact that they only "corrected" their NYC listings before releasing their NYC report is rather telling, assuming that the data presented here is correct.
