"MEDIAGATE" ROTS OUR DEMOCRACY!

The rampant spoilage of our democratic system by the television stations covering Los Angeles has gone unchecked. At a time when vital and responsive leadership is needed, slanted news coverage is defeating the American dream. Fifteen candidates for mayor of Los Angeles will appear on the ballot April 10, 2001. Yet the local Los Angeles television stations consistently filter out all but six of these candidates. Nine candidates, brimming with innovative ideas, offering needed solutions and presenting valuable perspectives, are going unheard. This is "Mediagate", the unfortunate decision to exclude qualified candidates, to render them invisible. What a loss for democracy!

Of the nearly 4 million citizens of Los Angeles, only approximately 250,000 voted in the most recent April and June elections. I believe that many more registered voters in our city will be moved to vote when they hear a candidate who speaks to their needs. The problem with Mediagate is that it creates an unfair advantage for the six media-favored candidates, and this advantage increases each time the other nine candidates are not visible. As the other nine are cut out of the picture, they fall farther behind, losing opportunities to gain votes and giving up important ground in their quest for campaign contributions.

How can the television stations exclude candidates from coverage when we have equal time laws? Are the local television stations willing to flaunt the Federal Communications Commission regulators? Do these stations realize that the Federal Communication Commission may revoke their broadcast license or levy a severe fine?

Who can stop the rot in the media? I am willing to blow the whistle and hold the press accountable. I am actively in the process of selecting top legal representation to sue the local television broadcast stations and their parent companies under our equal time laws. I have also opened the door for the local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to join in this suit involving the violation of civil rights. I will ask not only for local coverage as provided by the law, but also for monetary compensation sufficient to level the playing field enjoyed by the six media-favored candidates.

I urge all Los Angeles residents to express their outrage and demand fair news coverage for all of the candidates. The telephone numbers of Los Angeles television station news directors are below:
Mr. Dennis Herzit at KCAL-9 News 1-323-469-4979, Mr. Jeff Wald at KTLA-5 News 1-323-460-5333, Ms. Cheryl Fair at KABC-7 News 1-818-863-777, , Mr. Roger Bell at KCBS-2 News 1-323-460-3733, Mr. Nancy Bauer-Gonzales at KNBC-4 News 1-818-840-4444, Mr. Jose Rios at FOX-11 News 1-310-584-2000, and Mr. Larry Perret at UPN-13 News 1-323-851-1000.

A public thank you to Costco for allowing Mayor Mozena for Los Angeles Citizens to gather signatures for his nominating petitions at their Westside and  Valley locations.  Mr. Mozena has qualified with the required signatures and will be on ballot  April 10th   thanks to Costco and the hundreds of signatures from the registered voters and Costco customers of Los Angeles. Sincerely, I thank all of you!

VENICE, CA - "A computer in every Los Angeles household and a personal web page for every individual," says mayoral candidate Steve Mozena during his campaign to be the "e-man," the "e-candidate" and the "e-mayor" for the future of Los Angeles.

Mozena, who saw the vision of the electronic world back before the Web was "hip", created the first electronic college academic publishing company in 1994. See www.etext.net

He pledges to draw in members of the collegiate community for his "e-Mayoral" administration as well as implement a cutting-edge computerization program for the city and its citizens.

Mozena's e-vision is to have a web page for all city departments set up as an "open book," where budgets may be readily viewed, expenditures easily found and city bids and awards checked for favoritism towards certain vendors, moreover, the ability to spot waste and corruption.

His e-vision for Los Angeles includes online education playing a more important role for children K-12, with students going to class with others from all over the world, creating a diverse education. In addition, students would not be judged on how they look, but on their work.

African-American Entrepreneur Allen Suggs has seen Mozena as someone willing to help a person with a dream. Suggs, an artist who creates gift items such as bracelets and rings out of craft wire, felt he might get "left behind" with technology and asked Mozena how he could obtain a web site for his wirebike company.

To his delight, Mozena gave him exact advice on starting his company. Suggs said the company is now on the web at www.wirebike.com, and credits Mozena for his success.

Suggs said, "You're the e-man! You helped me get started on the web with all the answers! You have my vote for mayor...You're the e-mayor Mozena for Los Angeles!"

Labor Union Lies Do you think your Union really cares about you and your family or does it just care about itself like the Local 347 SEIU Union? Do you know your Union leaders are hiding the fact there are actually 15 L.A. Mayoral Candidates? Is this lying for the good of you and the Local 347 families? Or are Union members being coerced into voting for one of the six select candidates? How can a union that censors information be acting on the behalf of its members and their families? I would welcome a union that puts forth tough questions and demands all of the candidates address member concerns, but a union that systematically hides the truth is not acting for the members, but rather for those few privileged with power and wealth. In fact, what else is your union willing to lie to you and your family about to sustain itself? Remember, no matter who your Union endorsed. It's not up to your Union on how you vote on April 10th at the voting booth, but who you think will help you and your family the most as mayor of Los Angeles. Don't be blindly led by your Union like Hitler led his his Nazi soldiers. I ask you to vote from your heart and head for you and your family and vote for me. Truly, I'll help you, and your family, and your fellow Union members' families. Vote for Mayor Steve Mozena for Los Angeles Tuesday April 10th. Thank you. Mozena to appear on T.V.

Will the "Underdog" Los Angeles Mayoral Candidate Steve Mozena garner a surprise victory and leave egg on the face of the media political pundits and actually win this primary election on April 10th. Ross Perot, Ralph Nader and Jesse Ventura have changed the political landscape. Who would have thought a B-rated Actor would have been the President of the U.S. or now a baseball team owner? Will Steve help groom the future political playing field by being elected Mayor of Los Angeles. Watch. Irishmen? Kennedy, Reagan, Clinton and Steve Mozena? Yes, Steve Mozena is half Irish. Steve's mother was born in Dublin, Ireland. Now, will Steve Mozena have the luck of the Irish on April 10th? Your vote holds the answer. Vote Mozena. E-Fireside Chats Just like the great leaders who have traveled before us,  Steve Mozena stands on their shoulders and beyond this, is an out-of-the-box thinker who will not only communicate with citizens of Los Angeles through radio, cable and TV beachside chats, but as the e-mayor, Mozena will interactively communicate through e-mail and chats online to solve the citizens' challenges of L.A. because he knows that communication is the most important ingredient in the recipe of ALL relationships.

Rooftop Windmills:  Creative Solution to the California Energy Crisis

I have proposed through the Los Angeles TV News Media a long -term solution to the California energy crunch.

The solution is to create self-sufficient energy homes with Rooftop Windmills and Roof Solar Power.
Remember, TV Antennas and now Dishes?
In a similar way, we can create self-sufficient energy homes and have rooftop "windmill antennas" on new homes.

How can this be done?

Create a new law to have home developers install these windmills with energy storage tanks with ALL new houses along with the roof solar power system.
Additionally, when an existing home is sold, legislate the windmill-solar system must be installed in the residence before the sale is complete.
Just one of many of Mozena's creative ideas and solutions to California's Challenges.

Additionally, I'd work with Mexican President Vincente Fox to build a couple of additional power plants in Mexico for a twofold reason: One to employ the Mexican labor with the construction of the plants and its eventual operation and two: to provide electricity to Mexico citizens as well as sell the extra energy to the state of California for its citizens.
