Did Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. Give his State of the Borough Speech Already?




  
  Above is a copy of the front page of the Riverdale Review I picked up today Wednesday February 17, 2016. As you can see the front page (and only story in this paper) is about Thursday's February 18, 2016 State of the Borough speech by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. As one reads the story Bronx Borough President Diaz is quoted as if he has already given the State of the Borough Speech. I have circled several areas where the following is - 'Said Borough President Diaz in his speech'. 

  Also in the story the words 'In his speech, the borough president will note that the borough has seen 23,000 new units of housing and over 68 million square feet of total development since he took office in 2009.  Also mentioned is that Borough President Diaz will also focus on his recent report that considers building a platform over the Concourse Yards adjacent to Lehman College. it is also mentioned that the borough president will also call for all students in public universal pre-K programs to be tested for gifted an talented programs.
  
  In all there are four times 'Said Borough President Diaz in his Speech' appears in the Review story. Today we are leading the way in job creation -said Borough President Diaz in his speech. 
The economic benefits of new transit projects are undeniable, and we look forward to full approval by the State Legislature 'said Borough President Diaz in his speech. 
And, perhaps, we must generate new real estate in areas where none exists 'said Borough President Diaz in his speech'. 
If more students are tested more students will qualify, and more students will be given the same opportunity I was, 'said Borough President Diaz'.

  I almost feel as if I have already heard the Thursday February 18, 2016 State of the Bronx speech by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. after reading the story in the Wednesday February 17, 2016 story about the State of the Borough Speech by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. 

  Maybe I can have Deja vu tomorrow when I see the State of the Borough Speech given by Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.
