Abstract

The N.Y.C. Scandals of Ed Koch

Green, Mark | March 27, 1989 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents a discussion on New York City Mayor Edward Koch. Jack Newfield and Wayne Barrett's have criticized Koch's policies in their book "City for Sale: Ed Koch and the Betrayal of New York"; an absorbing chronicle of corruption that meticulously exposes Koch's alibis and diversions. Koch is seeking a third term in a bellwether election with implications for anyone who cares about American cities. Koch interviewers who fail to read this book are as guilty as the Mayor of the authors' final verdict, being someone "who didn't want to know."
