AutoSpies (AutoLies) Gets Escorted and Asked To Leave NYIAS

Ouch.

The biggest news at the 2009 New York Auto Show so far was the ejection of Agent 001 from the show floor this morning, by two security guards and show PR honcho Chris Sams.


As he was taking photos the security guards approached and Sams asked him to relinquish his media badge because a couple of our readers somehow got in yesterday and got photos of the Acura ZDX!"

I don't think I quite understand.

Why would Acura bring a car to an auto show if they didn't want people to see it?

No, They broke manufacturer photos before it was time. (Autospies was given shots, and they have an agreement to not break the photos) Autospies said that a "reader" had got in a took shots, so then Autospies posted those shots online. Acura probably didn't buy it and had asked to get autospied removed.
