Scoot in the Morning says he was told it was due to crime concerns

WWL TV interviews GNO Inc who says its because they did not provide incentives

Puerto Rico appears to have replaced New Orleans.
Billboard
"Meanwhile, television personality Jeannie Mai is set to ring in the New Year for the show’s Pacific time zone section, while Dayanara Torres will lead the festivities in Puerto Rico."

Wow. Such an upgrade.

Oh wait. Two places that could be nice but aren’t.

Nunguesser fricked this up again and needs someone to blame.

So he leaks this out through Landry's NOLA arm and Scoot refuses to give his sources.


Think back a few years where Nunguesser proposed the country christian chick, Dick passed, Latoya ran with it, used other funds, we got the shitshow that was Freedia.

Best thing to ever come out of these was ole boy giving his girl the sneaky pickle up against the police barrier.

Then it's about virtue signaling, not crime.

Nunguesser may be the biggest politician loser in Louisiana and that's saying something

I don't buy the crime angle either. Crime is absolutely a problem in New Orleans, but I don't think it's really one for nationally televised NYE telecasts. Can always be wrong though.

I'm betting the "crime" ABC is referring to is the bribes and kickbacks to NO politicians .

Remove all the crime infested areas you are referencing and Louisiana is still top 3 for violent crime in the US per capita.

Sorry for the irrefutable facts.
