Sticking a Fork in #Forkgate

Thanks to the quick thinking of Marc Cosentino, co-owner of Staten Island pizza joint Goodfella’s, #Forkgate wasn’t just the goofiest New York news story of the year. The outrage over Mayor de Blasio choosing to eat pizza with a knife and fork was also a trail that benefited a local charity. An anonymous bidder ponied up $2,500 for the scandalous main utensil, an amount that was then donated to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation.
