Mailers busting Bric; Reinke
It didn't take long for the sharks to smell blood as revelations about Gary Bric, the perceived frontrunner for Burbank City Council, and his past run-ins with the law made the news last week. A mailer paid for by the Coalition for Responsible Leadership, also known as the Good Government Committee, juxtaposes his Los Angeles Superior Court case history with the bullet point "Bric's record shows a repeated history of BAD judgment." (emphasis from mailer)
On the back, the mailer knocks Anja Reinke, who finished second in the primary and has the support of most of the current council except for Councilman David Gordon. The good doctor is backing Carolyn and Phil Berlin. Both long-time local activists, the Berlins supported Gordon's run last year in the special council election.
Now I haven't looked into the allegations _ and there are plenty in this one _ but Will Rogers takes a shot analyzing the hit piece in his latest column.
Not sure how Bric and Reinke plan to respond _ hope it doesn't get too ugly.
