S.F. takes note of mayor

| | Comments (1) |

A who's who of San Francisco political players will be hobnobbing Wednesday evening at a swanky fundraiser in the Neiman Marcus rotunda to honor a big-city mayor who is considered a superstar in the state Democratic Party.San Francisco Chronicle.

And it's not Gavin Newsom.

The invitation-only, champagne reception in the Union Square department store for Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is expected to raise tens of thousands of dollars for his re-election bid next spring.

Journalists have a responsibility to report the facts and an important fact has not been reported here. The readers have correctly pointed out that Mayor Villaraigosa does have at least one challenger so far in next year's mayoral race. When the story edited for accuracy, why didn't The Daily News mention that Walter Moore has been a mayoral candidate for the past year? The paper is to serve the public and the public has a right to know who is running and let the people decide, rather than the candidates that get promoted over others.
