Press Conference Recap Regarding “Matthew”
At Noon Eastern time, I held a press conferece here in NYC to discuss the claims made by Matthew Gray and his father, Louis Gray. My legal team is a very pricey one based on the West coast - Malik, McManus, Cashmore, Eldon and Marshall. I went with a West coast team because Matthew care Louis are based out there in Silicon Valley.
Here is the press conference video - you can’t tell from the video but 42 journalists from 9 countries including Canada were present. Please feel free to leave any questions here and I will answer them as best and as gratuitously as I can. Also note that in the last day, Pete (Matthew’s replacement) posted her next CN video - it’s titled "thanks Allen". At least some employees know how to show appreciation for the pay and lucrative bonuses we offer here at CenterNetworks.
My legal team and the blogger team at CN hope that Gray and his family will accept the terms proposed during the press conference so that we can all move past this and get back to writing stories and making videos. Thank you all for your time today.






Allen, thank you for your clear comments and summary.
As we do not have the financial resources to support our own high-priced legal team, we are agreeing to the settlement, composed of an I Love NY t-shirt for Mr. Matthew Gray.
Again, appreciate his opportunity to work with such a respected blog and boss as yourself, and look forward to putting this matter behind us.
Great, thanks Louis for accepting the terms - and thanks to my legal team for coming up with the idea.
The t-shirt will be delivered in due time.
LOL! there is no one in the reflection in your sunglasses! too funny Allen!
Where can I learn more about your legal team?
Mr Kontonis - you could have asked me and I would have explained. The press people were behind a shield of bulletproof glass and therefore there was no reflection.
fantastic!
Sleeping on the job? No way! As Matthew’s mother I can honestly day this kid never sleeps. I have the dark circles under my eyes to prove it.
we have photos! nice to see you online Kristine :)
the jig is up, i couldnt stay silent anymore

I like how he’s reading and looking around as if he’s standing in front of reporters with their mics at the ready - yet his sunglasses give away the fact that he’s talking to a completely empty room.
