They knew something was wrong, but in 1949 trying to figure it out was like spitting in the dark.

From New York Times December 9th, 1949

Some muckraker named Arthur Daley pretty much understood what he was looking at (with more than a little personal judgment thrown in) but it would be eleven years before any of it would be provable. - He really dislikes LaMotta; his last line is a good shot to LaMotta's gut; or a cheap shot, depending on your opinion of LaMotta.

LOL... "This devious man [LaMotta] holds no more notable distinction than being the greatest Middleweight Champion since Marcel Cerdan."
