Who're you gonna call?
It's an old trick. When reporters are tough on local elected officials or public figures, the subject refuses to talk to the reporter. While there are exceptions, most times it's because they want coverage that bolsters their views not expose them. But the general rule is that they don't get to decide who they are going to talk to. Don't return phone calls to a reporter who is doing a responsible job reporting, and you're not going to get another story from another reporter.
Councilman Roger Hernandez should know this by now.

Roger Hernandez needs a lesson in humility. I don't know who he thinks he is, treating staff with threats and profanity. This would not be tolerated in the private sector. Hernandez' immature and childish behavior is an embarassment to the city of West Covina and it's residents.
