Los Angeles, CA — “Power Players” who are orchestrating the take over of the L. A. Unified School District are revealed in a seven minute Full Disclosure Network™ video blog, which includes exclusive video clips of little known financial operations of the District (LAUSD). Available free, on demand, 24/7 at the URL www.fulldisclosure.net/flash/VideoBlogs/VideoBlog18.php as a public service.
Featured in the video blog is L. A. City Controller Laura Chick who is pushing for an outside and independent audit of the District by her office and a description of the battle brewing between Mayor Antonio Villargiarosa and LAUSD Superintendent Roy Romer and the struggle for major political forces to gain control of the nation’s second largest school district.
Billed as “the news behind the news”, this video blog is moderated by Emmy Award winning host Leslie Dutton. The prominent officials appearing on this Full Disclosure™ Video Blog are:
*L. A. City Controller Laura Chick,
*Special Assistant District Attorney Anthony Patchett (ret),
*Cardinal Roger Mahoney,
*Roger Carrick, Special Legal Counsel to the LAUSD Inspector General.
At issue is the multi-billion-dollar LAUSD annual budget and $27 billion dollars in taxpayer funds received by the District over the past seven years from bonds and matching funds intended for school construction, while the District maintains a 50% drop out rate for students. Prosecutors and politicians claim the District is not accountable for the money while Cardinal Roger Mahoney provides a more positive view.
