Sunday Bloggin Feature: "Are Past Judgments ($193,000+) against Academia Semillas del Pueblo still pending"?
With the recent renew interest in the controversial charter schoool Academia Semillas del Pueblo, we have received many documents here at Mayor Sam regarding present issues such as declining test scores, questionable financial standing and a failed effort by LAUSD education professionals to revoke charter renewal (thanks to LAUSD School Board President Monica Garcia).
Yet, what many have forgotten in the recent years is Academia's attempt to restrict the free speech rights of the likes of KABC Talk Radio Host Doug McIntyre and the financial ramifications the subsequent legal ruling had on the finances of the controversial charter school.
Doug McIntyre and then parent company of KABC Talk Radio 790 AM Disney were the target of a civil rights and defamation lawsuit by Marcos Aguilar after McIntyre's reporting on the controversial comments of Aguilar and the low test scores of its students.
But Aguilar's lawsuit fail and Academia was found liable for Disney and McIntyre's legal fees. You can read the rest of the legal findings after the jump. BTW to Doug and Disney, has Academia paid up on their legal obligations?
Your thoughts ..............

Doug McIntyre is a tired hack. He'll say anything in hopes of getting headlines. Maybe he didn't cross the line on this one but he tries on many other occasions.
His show is 38th in the ratings, meaning test patterns do better.
People need to know the truth !! Don't come after the writer when the court document is shown.. Hahaha, is that you Marcos?...trying to create doubt on the writer ..
Doug, is a great reporter, and those that do not like because he exposed corrupt dirty bastard does not make him a bad reporter. Academia, and there follower should be thrown in jail for the educational injustices.
Hey has anybody checked everyones
legal status maybe we are now funding kids from the cartels.
The Cartels kids have landed
Im just saying!
The question I have did the school use my TAX DOLLARS on this frivilous lawsuit?
Maybe Doug Mcintyre did have some trutgh to what he said.. I hear alot of parent complaints about the school conduct towards the children.. makes you wonder ...
I AGREE WITH SOME OF MCINTIRE'S VIEWS MAINLY REGARDING HIS STAND ON IMMIGRATION. BUT HIS CHIEF PROBLEM IS HE IS MORE A COMMPLAINER THAN AN ACTIVIST. HIS CAUSES SUFFER FOR THAT. IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO SAY SOMETHING YOU MUST ACT ON IT AND HE IS IN A IDEAL PLACE TO DO THAT BUT HE WASTE A LOT OF TIME TRYING TO PLAY ALL SIDES. DOUG IT REALLY DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY. IF YOU REALLY CARE THEN GIVE TIME TO PEOPLE AND GROUPS YOU CLAIM TO SUPPORT BUILD SOME CREDIBILITY THEN MAYBE YOUR WORDS WILL MEAN SOMETHING. HE NEEDS TO WATCH AMY GOODMAN'S DEMOCRACY NOW AT LEAST SHE DOESN'T TRY TO BE THE SHOW.
