Fabian "Nucklehead" Nunez suffers defeat over his plan to kill public access cable and "The Zuma Dogg Show" gets a year reprieve, along with all other public access producers at Time Warner franchises throughtout the City.
When your policies are so shady, of course you would want to kill as much public input as possible. (Look how City Council is trying to squelch ZD's voice by sending out rouge LAPD cops to rough him up and cause physical contusions during a bogus, un-warranted arrest.)
But since ZD and the Eastside Producers Association don't show up at Nunez's Assembly meetings to call him out, but choose the public access cable TV as the forum, he has to kill it so no one can blow the whistle on him when he runs for Mayor of L.A. (when Mayor Antonio runs for Governor or U.S. President).
So ZD & Association hit up Councilmember Tony Cardenas' I.T. (Information and Technology) Committee meetings, recently, to express concern over pulling the plug on the public. Cardenas agreed with ZD and voted today to give the Nucklehead's ploy a one year reprieve, because if it's Nunez legislation, it most likely has lots of problems and bad intent, and it does.
The I.T. Committee needs a one year transition period to re-examine the many flaws of this Nunez legislation. (Item 3709433).
So it's at least one more year of "Big ZD TV" on Time Warner cable, and it's gonna be a whole lot of fun come election season in March! And now, lets celebrate with a little "Best of The Zuma Dogg Show" as will continue to be seen on Time Warner cable in L.A. & Ventura County.
Between this, the Mayor's $2.7 Million Dogg Food Veto and Fox pulling O.J.'s "fictional novel" and interview, it's time to pull out the Tom LeBong politician voice to say: "Today, is TRULY a great day for the City of Los Aneles."
