Mayor's office retaliates after WBRZ report, cancels interview on flooding issues
Mayor's office retaliates after WBRZ report, cancels interview on flooding issues
quote:
BATON ROUGE - Mayor Sharon Weston Broome's office backed out of an interview with WBRZ discussing flood concerns in the parish Thursday, citing an Investigative Unit report profiling the city's legal battle with a resident trying to protect his home from flooding.
WBRZ shared Ken Guidry's story Wednesday night. Guidry, whose property near Perkins Road is often threatened by high water, built a ring levee around his home to keep it from flooding.
"If it wouldn't be for my levees, an afternoon shower would wash in my house," Guidry said.
The city-parish forced Guidry to take down any part of the barrier that ran adjacent to a drainage canal, rendering it useless. Parish officials said they were concerned the levee would affect residents in the nearby Willowgrove subdivision.
The judgment says "if the defendant Kenneth Guidry does not remove all the fill he has deposited within the ten days, the city-parish shall remove all the deposited fill from the public drainage way."
Chief Investigator Chris Nakamoto's story sparked heated conversation on social media after it aired on WBRZ Wednesday night.
A spokesperson for the mayor's office contacted WBRZ, frustrated over the report. That spokesperson then canceled an interview scheduled with the mayor Thursday to discuss flood prevention in East Baton Rouge.
The mayor's office later sent out a news release laying out the information on flood zones that would have been discussed in that interview.

The mayor backed out of an interview with a news reporter because her feels got all hurt because he reported the news?
Sounds about right.

Idk nakamoto has a lot more pull than Chawla ever did but I’d be remiss if I didn’t think it’d be awesome if they got together on their own reporting platform.

The applicability of featherweight is highly debatable in both parties

Difference is that Nak has made enough of a name for himself that he could turn a firing over pissing off Da Mayor into a better gig elsewhere.

Kiran can say whatever she wants now though.

Baton Rouge is done. It’s over.

BR has been over since the second this bitch got in office.
Between her and JBE, they have fricked the parish like a 5’ blonde in an NBA gang bang video.

I'm just shocked a media outlet actually had the balls to go after her. Take notes NOLA. The way the TP/Advocate and the local stations defend that bag of shite Cantrell is fricking nauseating.

Broome going to get him fired too. So much for the media being the watchdogs of government. More like lapdog these days.

Chawla and Nakamoto keep airing out everything you can find on the dirty Broome. Tag team it.

frick that, if that happens it's time to have a sit it on the front and back doors of city hall. if they won't tell reporters then the people can get together and they can address us directly.
I'm done with the elected cowards of this state afraid of a little bad press and accountability. And I'm not moving my family's graves to Texas, Florida, or Tennessee.
The parish isn't going to tell us when we can and cannot defend our private property from their lack of budgetary action. if the government, federal, state, city or local doesn't have the funds to achieve what it needs to accomplish for its taxpayers. Then it needs to do what other businesses do and start laying off government jobs and have the system work for its people.
Edwards is gone and it's the dawn of a new day. Time for us to learn from our mistakes as constituents and make a place that our children and grandchildren are proud to call home.
time for the baws to adapt. exercise that 1st amendment right to the fullest. if not we'll only lose it more each day.
