Here’s to the folks who work overtime to dispel the notion of a slow news day. (Like, say, today.)
Over the past month, the Queens Chronicle has collected every e mail and fax sent by Queens representatives at all levels of government: city, state and federal. The paper tabulated the total number of communications and [John] Liu came out ahead by a large margin.
The highly scientific results:
The Press Release Champs
City Council: John Liu (D Flushing), 37 e mails, 3 faxes
State Assembly: Mike Gianaris (D Astoria), 7 e mails, 4 faxes
State Senate: Malcolm Smith (D St. Albans), 10 e mails, 14 faxes
Federal Government: Sen. Hillary Clinton, 32 e mails
–releases collected between Nov. 21 and Dec. 21, 2006 by the Queens Chronicle
