I guess the story is hacker news worthy if we discuss the economics.
One thing to notice is that the New York Post is a conservative newspaper, so they take a conservative view. Of course the other sources may be more liberal.
Something to factor into the equation.
- jonahbenton 7y agoThere is nothing "conservative" about the NY Posts view. They are reactionary rabble rousers. The economic challenge for NYC restaurants in reality is the rent, full stop, end of story.
- melling 7y agoI didn’t say anything about this particular viewpoint. I said the New York Post is a conservative paper: https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/new-york-post/ https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/new-york-post/ You should try to understand the biases of any given paper when reading their opinions.
