SF MUNI CEO's response to SF Weekly expose on how and why MUNI sucks: "Stop Snitching." #pissed_off_voters

Here's the full article on why MUNI is slowest, most inefficient, most poorly run transit system in the country.

The subject of his wrath wasn't Muni's forthcoming deep service cuts or any of the myriad subjects discussed in SF Weekly's article. Instead, Ford was reportedly deeply displeased that Muni officials revealed to us Mayor Gavin Newsom's heavy-handed involvement in the transit agency's budgeting process and insistence Muni fudge its deficit numbers to make them smaller and "politically palitiable."

"There's a snitch in this room," Ford allegedly told his top brass.

In other words, the problem isn't that Muni has problems -- it's that somebody talked about the problems.

Oh, ok. Right. Don't fix the problem. Tell your top lieutenants to stop cooperating with the press.

Our San Francisco tax dollars at work.

Best line in that article:

"San Francisco is a city in which a roomful of hipsters actually managed to push the Planning Commission to keep an American Apparel retail store out of the Mission District. "
