Mayor Eric Adams came out swinging Tuesday against reporters and media outlets whom, he alleged, misrepresented a conversation he had in Albany with state officials on Monday.
by the New York Daily News, Adams remarked on a reported comment that he was allegedly “beat up pretty badly” during a meeting regarding criminal justice reform with lawmakers in Albany yesterday.
However, his interactions with lawmakers Monday, as it relates to pushing bail reform, were labeled a failure; the Daily News reported one anonymous Democratic legislative source as stating that Adams “got beat up pretty rough in there.” Adams went as far as to say that he may restrict press questioning in the future if this type of coverage was to continue.
