Mayor Slay goes live tonight on Bloomberg
Word is that Mayor Francis Slay will be live on Bloomberg TV tonight to discuss the InBev buyout of Anheuser-Busch. Not sure of the time just yet, in case anyone can or wants to tune in.
Slay has been a vocal and predictable supporter of A-B in this whole process. Even before takeover talk, Slay stressed to me at a fancy dinner in May in Forest Park that he tries to buy local as much as possible, and orders only A-B when out of town.
But the times, they are a-changing, and Slay has now said that he looks forward to working with InBev; he also also, in statements, tried to provide reassurance that the Belgian brewer will continue A-B’s tradition here.
And in case you’re wondering what the mayor is doing in NYC to be on Bloomberg, he is there for the All-Star game.
And who comped the good mayor his trip and tickets?
