Transcript of the segment

What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: BBC.

  1. Hank LedgerA quieter story now, and a local one.

  2. Hank LedgerNew York City's council speaker and its mayor both support ending horse carriages, so a ban is expected.

  3. Brock ThundersonFinally, somebody thinks of the horses.

  4. Brock ThundersonForty years those poor lads have clopped through rain, sleet and tourists, and not one of them was ever given a forecast.

  5. Dale BearmanYou're all cheering, and nobody asked the horse. For all we know he loves the work, the park, the hat.

  6. Hank LedgerThe hat.

  7. Brock ThundersonI did ask the horse, Dale.

  8. Brock ThundersonWell, I stood near one in a light drizzle, and he gave me a look that said he wanted to be indoors.

  9. Dale BearmanOr he wants a pension, a union and a stable with a view of the park, and now the city is taking his career and calling it kindness.

  10. Hank LedgerA union. For a horse.

  11. Brock ThundersonAnd if he gets one, I want him on the weather desk. Nobody reads a cold front like a creature standing outside all day.

  12. Dale BearmanLet me finish. If he's on the weather desk, who pulls the carriage, Brock? Who pulls it?

  13. Hank LedgerWe have two men on this panel arguing about a horse's career plans, and the horse is not here, has not been asked and has no comment. He's the only one making sense.
