Ignorant or unwilling to tell the truth.. which is it?

"New York City has cut spending in an effort to reduce the city's deficit, they have not turned to tax increases on the residents to achieve financial stability." Pete Schmitt (Long Island Press)

Whoa! NYC increased property taxes by 18.9%. Massapequa is not very far from NYC and we're sure Schmitt gets all the local NYC newscasts plus Newsday, NYTimes, Daily News all reported on the increase. Why can't Schmitt tell the truth?
