Newsom Going Down...
Gets Fresh On Reporter's Mic

newsomgoingdown.jpg
Gavin Newsom loves controversy. The San Francisco mayor - who just left rehab after admitting to fucking his campaign manager's wife - got a little fresh after a reporter asked him about Laguna Honda Hospital. The hospital's currently under investigation after failing to report - and, in fact, denying - an elderly patient's fatal fall.

ABC's Dan Noyes met up with Newsom yesterday, but Newsom was in no mood to chat:

GN: Happy to take any questions you guys have.
DN: Mayor, I'm reporting-
GN: From any reporters.
DN: How about me, mayor?
GN: Thank you very much.
DN: I'm reporting-
GN: Thank you guys very much, appreciate it.
DN: Mayor, come on, you're kidding me, right?
Not very friendly, but not surprising - politicians often ignore reporter's questions. But we can't help but wonder why Newsom - a straight man - would jokingly go down on the microphone. Maybe it's all that gay activism.

Dan Noyes' real name is Dan Annoyes. He is the most annoying "reporter" in San Francisco. I don't blame Newsome for ignoring the muckraker (of course Newsome is no angel).

In the original mayor election Newsome was pitted against another male candidate and it pretty much started to look like a Miss America contest of who was the prettiest candidate.

Gavin's competition in the last election was a gentleman named Matt Gonzalez. But we've also got Supervisors Chris Daly and Ross Mirkarimi, aka Mirkadreamy -- San Francisco is awash in hot politicians. Gavin pales in comparison.
