Emmy-winning money guy for KTLA Channel 5. Former LA Times. I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine.
I’m roadkill because of the chase. I’ll revisit the chicken wings topic in the 10pm show

Coming up on #KTLA: The top 1% of U.S. households now accounts for about a third of the nation's wealth. This places local, state and the federal government in a precarious position as billionaires increasingly find ways to dodge taxes

Coming up on #KTLA: Paramount, the company that won't take no for an answer, gets another shot at proposing marriage to Warner Bros Discovery. Has the White House quietly signaled it backs the acquisition?

Coming up on #KTLA: Last week the NY Fed acknowledged that U.S. companies and consumers pay virtually all of President Trump's tariffs. This week the WSJ is reporting that U.S. businesses are done swallowing higher costs and will raise prices

I’ve been a bit under the weather these past few days. Luckily I’ve had expert medical attention from Dr Teddy and Dr Lupin. Looking forward to returning to the airwaves tomorrow

Happy Birthday dear Teddy!
12 years ago today, Teddy joined our family. Here he is on his first day in his new home, about 20 pounds too light after weeks at a shelter. (The cage, which we had been advised to use for his transition, lasted all of an hour)
