Thanks To LAist.com For Massive Zuma Dogg Coverage Throughout the Day: See Exclusive Revealing Interview & More



Thanks so much to Zach Behrens and LAist.com for inviting Big ZD to be guest day editor for the Los Angeles culture blog. More content will be added throughout the day, but Zack must know how to aks all the right questions, because I admitted WAAAAAAY too much in the interview. (Mayor Sam readers are probably aware of some of the stuff I mention, but it may be a surprise to the wider, more mainstream LAist audience.

Plus, remember, ZD's "tribute" to Eli "The Broadfather" Broad's Grand Avenue Project in LA Weekly is still on newstands today.

Momma said 'If you cant say something nice, dont say anything at all'. If you dont like him why did you read this post? Are you being paid to give him a bad time?
Maybe you have a job, and should be working, but dont do your work, so you have time to spend here.

ZD Campaign Strategy Check:
Based on article in San Fran Chronicle [ZD comments in brackets]

Dick Helton, senior political reporter for Los Angeles-based KNX radio, asked Clinton whether she was concerned about the marital troubles of another key backer, Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.

"Dick Helton, this is Dianne Feinstein. I'm surprised at you for that question! My goodness,'' the senior California senator fumed, "Hillary's running for president. She doesn't need to get into this!'"

[OOPS...you may have avoided answering the question, but the people won't be upset with the reporter for aksing, they will associate the negative attribute in their mind to the person who didn't feel their response would have put the reporter in his place.

It's a manipulation/diversionary tactic using "criticism" to go on the attack when the discussion isn't going your way. The advesary switches it to something personally wrong with your behavior, as in, "I'm surprised at you for that question! My goodness, Hillary's running for president. She doesn't need to get into this!"

Meanwhile, the only way you can truly neutralize the question is to say something like, "No, I am not concerned about that issue as it relates to his work, on the job. Of course it isn't an easy process for Antonio to go through, but the mayor has tremendous energy, as an executive -- and a great team that he has assembled around him, and that's why we are working together.]


Helton answered that "with all due respect,'' the issue was significant to many voters.

"I echo my friend Dianne's comments,'' Clinton said.

Clinton then expressed her support for the mayor of the country's second-largest city who is serving as one of her four national campaign co-chairs. [Does Clinton only have FOUR campain co-chairs? I thought it was a laundry list. That SF Mayor Newsome will most likey be added to, any minute.]

Clinton said, "... I will continue to welcome his support.'' [How does someone not welcome support? Is there a chance she would come out and publicly "denounce" support? That would be hilarious. "Good evening America, I would just like everyone to know that I no longer welcome Antonio's support, and please vote for Barack Obama."]

...Feinstein said, adding Clinton will "reverse the politicization of the justice department, and nominate mainstream Supreme Court justices.'' [Reverse the politicization??? How about "eliminate" the policicization? I don't want "ANY" politicization, on either side (and if you are "reversing" you are "sides").]

In California, which will hold its early presidential primary on Feb. 5, Clinton also has the official support of Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez of Los Angeles. [I HOPE SHE HAS HIS SUPPORT, HE IS ONE OF THE MYRIAD OF CAMPAIGN CO-CHAIRS!!! I HOPE HE DOESN'T SUPPORT OBAMA??? HOW COME THE SF CHRONICle doesn't mention his position in her campaign?]

Clinton, in the next month, is also expected to announce the official endorsement of another key mayor, San Francisco's Gavin Newsome. [Look for laundry list to include one more co-chair.]

So these are some of the traps and pitfall you can avoid when implement Robbin's NAC, Bandler/Grindler's NLP, Ericksonian "Pattern" practictioning and Ries & Trout "Strategy" into your propoganda spin! It's fun and can prevent you from losing your election because you are installing negative embedded commands into the minds of your current supporters and a preventing yourself from picking up undecided future supporters.

STRATEGY...FOCUS...MORE EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATION YOUR MESSAGE THROUGH CONGRUENT WORDING/LINGUISTICS (AND TONALITY IN HILLARY'S CASE)!!!

At least public funds aren't the only thing you are wasting and being inefficient and innefective with!

And me personally...I would never send out letters quoting LA Times with inaccurate information regarding $1.8 BILLION dollars. [So add that to Di's list of things to see Tony Robbins or Dave Elliott about!]

Hey Zuma,
If your interview with LAist was real and not just publicity, please get yourself some help.I commend you fro your service to the community but you need to provide for yourself first. Eating at 7-11 or Ralphs is not a good choice as is living on the streets. I'm sure you know this deep down inside you, don't allow yourself to be a fool just for the attention. You talk about your bitterness and hate inside you, why would any self-respecting person chose to live that way? Do the right thing for yourself!!!

You aren't trying hard enough. Start out by getting a job and losing the glasses, beard and hat.

Then get an apartment with a shower and use it, including soap and deoderant.

Shorten your posts and learn to spell and use proper grammar and punctuation. If you really have something new and important to say, people will listen and comment appropriately.

For now, all you get is critical posts and Matt Dowd kissing up to you.

Grow up and become a man, not a caricature of one.

In short, get a life.
