A coalition of New York politicians, housing advocates, labor groups and hotel owners on Friday launched a $3 million campaign against Airbnb and other websites that facilitate "illegal hotels," a spokesman for the organization said.
The group, called Share Better, aims to counter the Airbnb media campaign that features upbeat stories of regular people renting out their homes and sharing meals or other experiences with their guests.
