Paterson, Serrano Have No Comment on Rangel
By Azi Paybarah
At the press conference earlier today, I asked David Paterson if had anything to say about today's Times article by David Kocieniewski detailing how Charlie Rangel helped protect a tax loophole that benefited a major donor to Rangel's eponymous CUNY institution.
"I didn't have a chance to read through all of it, so I don't really know enough to comment on it," Paterson said.
Representative Jose Serrano also declined to comment.
