It’s been a long 24 hours for Carl Paladino, who was getting into a pointed verbal argument with Post reporter Fred Dicker around this time yesterday. Since then, he and his team of advisers have spit-balled back and forth with the Post about who’s at fault, who deserves to be sued, and whose love child has been poked in the face with a camera. It’s all so confusing! So hard to keep track of! Thankfully, the Atlantic has broken it down to the original argument between Paladino and Dicker which started it all, and re-animated it in cuddly teddy bear form. Animated bear recreations really are the true opiates for the masses.
