Raymond Kelly still refused to bite back. (???)

COMMENT: Mum! “Raymond Kelly still refused to bite back”?? Give us a break! Who do you think is talking through Paul Browne?
The first call had to be Paul Browne, with the second and third to Kelly cronies Thomas Reppetto and Mike Lupica and maybe a fourth to Mike Daly, or something like that. And all those calls had to be made shortly after the end of the ABC Diana Williams interview.
One has to wonder what Kelly cronies Lupica and Reppetto will have to say about the criticism of the micromanaging megalomaniac and moral on the department? Daaaa.
Police Commissioner Bill Bratton and Detective Endowment Association President Michael Palladino are 100% totally right on the money. As are all the other union and fraternal organization presidents that have spoken out.
And Bratton said it about as nice as it could be said. He was as much of a gentleman as anyone could possibly be, telling the basic ugly truth.
There's still lots more that is going to come out. And none of it is going to be pretty. Earth to NYDN and the NY Post, Raymond Kelly does not walk on water. - Mike Bosak
