New Haven-area media last week broke an interesting story about controversial “stealth” pay raises Democratic Mayor John DeStefano paid members of his executive staff despite his city’s budget problems.
This is the same John DeStefano who on several occasions this year has appeared at the capitol on behalf of the Connecticut Conference of Municipalities urging state lawmakers (through the media) to help cities and towns weather the economic crisis.
Something tells me DeStefano’s lost a bit of credibility.
