Prop. 8 - We Support Gay Marriage - Boycott Manchester Grand Hyatt and Grand Del Mar
The UT reports that gay rights groups and their union allies are targeting the Manchester Grand Hyatt and the Grand Del Mar because the hotels' owner, Doug Manchester, gave $125,000 to Proposition 8, a November ballot measure that would ban same-sex marriage in California.

It's the economy stupid

We Support Aguirre
The Union Trib.
reported that a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by a former city employee against San Diego City Attorney Michael Aguirre has been dropped. Lepine agreed to drop the lawsuit and will receive no money from the city. A settlement agreement between Lepine and city states that each side will pay for their own legal fees and the city is prohibited from suing Lepine for malicious prosecution

The Union Trib. reported that the San Diego County Democratic Central Committee endorsed City Attorney Mike Aguirre for re-election Tuesday night.

Lame Democrats still giving in to a lame duck president.

    Notes from Troy Johnson: Why Fox Rox Was Cancelled 03.14.07
    Editors Note: Troy sent us a few emails explaining what happened. Thanks for the great run.
    Pt. 1
    Ratings, Homes, Ratings. That's why. No title sponsor. Twas a good run.

    Pt. 2
    To clarify... I wasn't even going to report on Fox Rox' death in CityBeat. I always thought that was a conflict of interest, so I rarely, if ever, reported on what Fox Rox was doing. Didn't want to be putting my own shit in there when local bands deserve the press. But my editor emphatically asked me at the last-minute to write an OBIT... so I obliged. Wasn't really meant to be a "news" story--since it's impossible to be objective about your own show--it was more of an ode...

    Pt. 3
    Basically, Fox Rox has always been done with a producer and an editor who always work on other projects for Fox. That way, we weren't having three people ONLY hired to do Fox Rox. Well, this year our department at Fox, called "Local Programming," stopped doing documentaries. So there were two people hired full time, with benefits, ONLY doing Fox Rox. Then plus my freelance rate (which was nothing extravagant, but still another cost). When that happened, I knew it was only a matter of time. We could have been sustainable if it was just my freelance rate and the producer (Scott Richison) and the editor (Jacquie Bazinet-Tolsen) were also producing other work for the station. But when that "other work" dried up, we went down with it
