I don't think Williams would have had a problem with the New York press at all. His problems up to that point stemmed from the fact that, inexplicably to modern day viewers, the Boston press had generally decided to belittle, criticize and denigrate Williams. His dislike of the Boston press was well-founded.

By contract, the New York press, with rare exceptions, tended to be supportive, even fawning. They had fallen over one another lionizing DiMaggio, in spite of the fact that he was cold, unfriendly and generally antisocial. Williams would have been a breath of fresh air to the NYC reporters. He was talkative, profane and colorful.
