EDITOR’S MEMO—Who to Blame

June 13 2016
Written by Ken Draper.

CITYWATCH TODAY—Angelenos … as are Americans everywhere … are working their way through waves of shock and grief. No one can escape. The magnitude of the Orlando horror was … is … too severe. 

Everyone grieves at his/her own pace but at some point everyone will come to the same juncture … the ‘blame’ juncture. That point where we need to know who or what to blame. An ‘Orlando experience’ is too horrific to chalk it up to providence and move on. 

Mother, writer, activist Mischa Haider ponders the weighty question and shares her analysis and her conclusion … in Today’s CityWatch. 

 

And, if you would like to share your conclusions … visit the CityWatch LA Pulse Poll and add your thoughts to the record. What you think is important. Giving what you think a voice … is also important. 

On a lighter note, CityWatch writer Phyllis Daugherty exposes a little known side of the late rock legend, Prince. Hint: If you love animals, you’ll love this piece. 

That and much more, in Today’s CityWatch.
