Otherwise, this story would have gotten near-zero attention and its adherents the ziggy.



Gov. Christie's biased Bridgegate report writes former aide Bridget Anne Kelly as deceitful damsel in distress

Linda Stasi
NEW YORK DAILY NEWS Sunday, March 30, 2014, 3:49 AM

There hasn’t been a novel this insanely sexist and badly written since “Fifty Shades of Grey.”

No, I’m not talking about the sequels by E L James. I’m talking about “Fifty Shades of Bulls--t,” otherwise known as the report prepared by Gov. Chris Christie’s lawyer, Randy Mastro.

Mastro’s new masterpiece, released Thursday, is a lively work of fiction that exonerates the big man and blames the little woman, man-needy Bridget Anne Kelly.

While “Grey” made millions, “Bulls--t” cost a million in taxpayer dollars. Think of it as an author advance. A very big author advance.

In Mastro’s alleged non-fiction account, Christie’s former powerhouse deputy chief of staff, Kelly, is reduced from strong, decisive woman and tough single mom to the weeping equivalent of “Fifty Shades’” man-obsessed heroine, Anastasia Steele.

SNIP...

What else would you expect from Mastro, the former baseball-bat-wielding deputy mayor under womanizing Rudy Giuliani?
