Oh yah, and they are not "telephone poles" they are "utility poles" and not EVERY big and yellow piece of heavy equipment is a "bulldozer". GOD! the media is so stupid.

Statue of Liberty overflight ends with police escort
Careless flights could jeopardize GA access to airspace
By AOPA ePublishing staff
An ultralight pilot received a police helicopter escort May 31 after he flew too close to the Statue of Liberty. According to press reports, the pilot came within 150 feet of the Statue of Liberty before being escorted to nearby Westchester County Airport in White Plains, N.Y.
It is one thing for the New York Times to report this plane as an ultralight because they simply don't know any better but for you to do it is unforgivable. You should be ashamed of yourself.
