Somehow, This Hasn’t Improved The Airport’s Image

An airport aide has filed a lawsuit against the city for allegedly violating his freedom of expression.

After Saul Ravitch, who worked in public relations, publicly criticized the airport to the Daily News in 2005 — as well as in a lengthy email and in opinion pieces — he was stripped of Internet and email access. Later, he was suspended.

And what was Ravitch’s job as airport PR specialist?

Ravitch’s boss, airport public- relations manager Mark Pesce, declined comment yesterday. He told Ravitch in a memo last year that his “fundamental job function is to promote and enhance the Airport’s image.”

And, really, what a bang-up job he’s doing.
