It looks like central Queens is becoming the center of the blogosphere...
A little blog devoted to chronicling the destruction of Queens by a roving band of unscrupulous developers and shifty politicians has been getting quite a lot of attention recently. New York 1 even asked the beep about it during an interview. It’s called Queens Crap, and the prime blogger is a busy bee, posting several entries a day.
It appears, however, that another grassroots blogger feels that the site is aptly named, not because of the demolition they chronicle, but because of the site itself, namely that it is full of crap (i.e., its own). To counter, someone has started the Juniper Park Patriots, a blog dedicated to “providing the truth, rather than executing a vindictive narrow-minded agenda.” The creator promises to provide “you with the FACTS to navigate through the CRAP.”
It seems we have our very own Federalist papers operating in the form of blogs in the heart of Queens, and Pol Position couldn’t be happier. No word, or rather post, yet from Queens Crap, but we hope it is only a matter of time before another shot is fired.
