    So, this is bad and all that but I kind of hate this narrative right now. Leadership of all types of organizations make way too much money and engage in nepotism. So why are we talking about homeless services in particular? Are they worse than other industries for some reason? Or is this just part of an agenda by certain powerful ideologues to cut services to homelessness?

    So far I don’t see anything unique about all these stories that isn’t also happening elsewhere. But I’d love to have a conversation about top-down organizational structure generally and the problems it causes.

      The Department of Homeless Services says it’s cut ties with three nonprofits cited in the report and were seeking corrective measures from at least two others.

      Right there below the headline it mentions how the city has already taken corrective action on this. The headline in particular doesn’t play well to a national audience, given that it’s an article only about NYC and whose target audience is NYC
