Brooklyn Screwed From Fireworks Again!

By Lisa M. Collins

Well, the Fourth of July Fireworks, put on by Macy’s, is again shunting Brooklyn and Queens and only producing the show over the Hudson River. Apparently, New Jerseyites get preference over Brooklynites and Queens residents. Bah, humbug.

Read all about it in The New York Daily News.
