The Foothill Cities Blog and Free Speech

As I read my San Gabriel Valley Tribune tonight I was pleasantly surprised to read about a local blog that has gained national attention, The Foothill Cities Blog. This blog writes about politics, restaurants, and events from Pasadena to Claremont by two anonymous bloggers, Publius and Centinel.

Seems Foothill Cities attracted the attention of Pomona City Hall regarding the departure of City Manager Doug Dunlap, and anonymous comments. Pomona City Attorney Arnold Alvarez-Glasman sent the blog an email, using city stationary, to cease and desist further false information regarding the City of Pomona.

And the Blogosphere has reacted in a positive way concerning free speech.
