A $1.3 million audit of New Jersey Transit ordered by Governor Phil Murphy found an urgent need for more money and less bureaucracy at the troubled commuter bus and train operator.
It also called for bigger social-media laughs -- but not during rush hour, when commuters tend to be steamed. A well-intentioned but ill-timed “Good morning” or “Good night” on Twitter is enough to incite a backlash, according to the audit released today.
