Times puts Giants Stadium story in the Metro section, not Sports
The Times put a 9/14/05 article headlined Giants Make Another Offer for Stadium at Meadowlands on the front of the Metro section. There's an interesting contrast between this article and the large majority of the early (2003-04) coverage of Forest City Ratner's Atlantic Yards project. Most of those article, also authored by Charles Bagli (real estate reporter) and Richard Sandomir (sports business), appeared in the Sports section. And Atlantic Yards, in contrast with the Giants stadium, was and remains mostly an office/residential real estate project, not a sports deal. So the Times finally, belatedly, wises up.
