In The Ballad of Gay Tony, whose timeline intersects the original GTA IV frequently, Gay Tony mentions in [[I Luv LC]] that "the banks" had been bailed out which was made official in early October. A Weazel News segment on the radio says that the events in [[Paper Trail]] and [[Entourage]] were about one month apart.
