Aron Noe against the West Side stadium
Ari Noe is outraged being an American but not having the freedom of speech. Ari Noe, president of OTR Media, which owns billboard space, hired North Shore Neon Sign Company of Maspeth to hang a sign 65-feet-by-65-feet for $35,000, opposing the plan of the construction of the West Side stadium. The signwas supposed to go up Friday at 33rd St. and Ninth Ave.But company officials told him Friday that the sign wouldn't go up because their union workers refused to hang it. Noe said he then contacted officials at Sheet Metal Workers International Association 137 to complain and that they told him, "Whoever hangs this sign loses their job. No one can hang this banner." Noe said he contacted at least four other companies — all staffed by union workers — but none would take the job. "Am I an American? This is freedom of speech. It's outrageous," Noe said http://vosizneias.blogspot.com/
