Typical blind right winger shooting their mouth off without thinking..
I never said he wasn't there.
Actually, no one did.
Just you in your attempt at muddying the waters.

The full text for the biased, blind peanuts...
I read the newspaper for some reason, I can’t believe it’s still around, but it disheartens me to wake up in the morning and see that the Upper West side is divided. We are not divided, we are absolutely united in wanting what’s best for our children. Whether that means a bigger place for our children to learn, or wanting to keep it here, we are all united in wanting what’s best for them.
That said. When you scroll down and you read rhetoric from some parents that suggests that you are opposed to this move ‘those against this idea are terrified of what it would look like if the school were to be in an area by the projects’ is dishonest at best and slanderous at worst.
So I urge you A, to stop talking to the press. This is a private matter, I think, from our community. This story doesn’t exist without your quotes.
And this goes for both sides too. Because the other quote is just insane from the other side, suggesting that opposing the relocation, that a high-performing school like this could not move to a (inaudible) poor area and not change, shows very little respect for these incredible teachers.
So just be mindful of when you speak, if you’re going to speak to the press, because slandering or saying anything negative about this teaching staff is wrong. And, conversely, painting any opposition as classist or racist is about as bad as it can get.
Please show where he doesn't want the school moved due to "poor black kids"....

This might reach the front page by morning. As long as it strokes certain chords it doesn't matter whether it's fake news or not, ATS will eat it up.

Fake news, chiefly because this is from 2016, and secondly a large part of his quote has been not so surprisingly omitted.
Yep, Snopes says so but read and fact check for yourself...

Snopes gives the cherry picked quote from the OP its context. If you don't think context can be trusted then I'm afraid to say that you're lost.

Really? We’re denying ignorance but relying on snopes, which has been proven over and over to have a bias? I live here!!
Besides, if you read the snopes article, it does NOT debunk the story at all!
At no point did we ever “expose” the myth-busting website as “an extremely liberal propaganda site with an agenda to discredit anything that appears to be conservative.”
That false claim was made in a meme that began circulating on Facebook and other platforms in February. Several of our readers have asked us about it.
The meme says that Snopes.com has been “busted” as a “100% fake fact-checking site,” and that the Democratic National Committee and hedge fund billionaire George Soros have been “exposed” as its “clients.” It also features two photos purportedly showing the “Snopes CEO” meeting with Soros, who has long supported Democratic candidates and causes.
But David Mikkelson, the founder and executive editor of Snopes.com, is not in either photo. One shows Soros shaking hands with Gordon Bajnai, an economist and former prime minister of Hungary from 2009 to 2010, and the other photo shows Soros with Andrew Baron, the son of the late trial lawyer and Democratic fundraiser Fred Baron.
