According to Shawn Boburg, a reporter for the Record who profiled Wildstein in 2012, “he was known as the governor’s eyes and ears inside” the Port Authority.

I don’t know what David was doing at that time.” After Wildstein joined the Port Authority, Christie conceded, he may have run into him five or six times, but he said he didn’t recall meeting with him in his office.
