Pandering to cut off free speech, the LA City Council has drifted along way from Constitutional Protections.
They are interested only in cutting of dissent to their own corrupt agendas. LA, as with California, has 'gone south'
in every meaning of that metaphor.
KFI 640 AM talk show hosts John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou are about the only local commentators who talk straight and honestly. These corrupt groups and politicians want them silenced for exposing the facts and truth, especially for doing it in their entertaining style that deflates big egos. m/r
City Council Warns ‘Crack Ho’ Comments ‘Intolerable’, Calls For Diversity In Talk Radio « CBS Los Angeles
March 21, 2012
LOS ANGELES (CBS) — City Council members were one step closer on Wednesday to becoming the first in the nation to adopt a resolution condemning certain types of speech on public airwaves.
Councilmember Jan Perry introduced legislation this week that would call upon media companies to ensure “on-air hosts do not use and promote racist and sexist slurs” on radio and other broadcasts.
Members of Black Media Alliance, National Hispanic Media Coalition, Korean-American Bar Association, and American Indians in Film and Television were on hand to voice their support for the proposal.
The resolution — which was also supported by Councilmember Bernard Parks and Council President Herb Wesson — called attention to the recent uproar over comments by KFI 640 AM talk show hosts John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou.
Kobylt and Chiampou were suspended after they called the late pop singer Whitney Houston a “crack ho”
three days after her death in February.
