Al Franken: The ‘I’ in ‘I Love NYC’ Is Changed to ‘We,’ As in ‘We Can’t Afford Rent’

‘Some of the other options were... ‘We love Jew York’’
By Grabien Staff

RUSH EXCERPT:

FRANKEN: “That’s right, it’s not “I” anymore, it’s “we.” As in, “we can’t afford rent,” [Cheers and applause] Or, “we just got pushed in front of the subway.” Or “we just pushed someone in front of the subway.” But if you are wondering how they got this incredible new slogan, I actually have some of the runner ups here. Let’s see, some of the other options were... “we love jew york.” Okay. “jew york, jew york.” “start spreading the jews.” And then they told Kanye to leave the meeting. And that’s when they settled on “we love New York City.””
