Marianne Williamson, Founder Hollywood, CA--Marianne Williamson founded the Project Angel Food charity in Hollywood in response to the HIV/Aids epidemic in the 1980s.   Angel Food brings meals to those people due to illness are unable to shop and prepare their own meals.  As of 2004 the program was expanded to include people suffering from all types of disabling and deadly diseases. Make no mistake; Project Angel Food is in the business of saving lives everyday.  The workers, donors and contributors involved with Project Angel Food are true heroes.  I’m delighted to introduce you to the Executive Director, Richard Ayoub who will take us on a tour of this amazing operation.  

Canon 80D Los Angeles,CA —I just got a new vlogging DSLR camera.  I already had a decent news gathering video camera, a couple GoPro cameras, an iPhone and four drones.   I actually have a working video and photography studio in my home. Needless to say, I also have a video editing suite and can post whatever I please on Social media sites.  However now, I really do have all need to regularly produce a very watchable vlog.   I’m still learning new things every day.  The largest vlogging obstacle is a lack of subject material.  I finally made the realization that the best vloggers can make a story out of a trip to the dentist or even the grocery store watchable and interesting!  It’s time for me to learn how to be an enterprising vlogger.  I must go out and find my stories and share them.   I do have a huge TV news background working on such stories as The Oklahoma Bombing and Ted Kaczynski , the long sought UNIBOM, serial ...

Los Angeles, CA — George Orwell said in best, “Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed; everything else is public relations.” I’ve enjoyed a joint Career, along with being a licensed private eye, I was drafted into TV news as an investigative producer.   Fortunately I’ve never been sued despite thousands of investigations and news stories.  I’ve always been very careful to avoid common pitfalls or errors in gathering and disclosing records. However I’ve seen plenty expensive litigation both legitimate and frivolous plague news organizations. Right or wrong litigation costs can be crippling to any newsroom.   I’ve watched news managers panic when the phone calls bombard newsrooms after an Exposé.  Threats to sue along with demands for retractions are common.  Today’s news managers just don’t have the stomach to hear the whining from the miscreants who see their foul deeds displayed on their TV screens. It is routine fo...

Los Angeles, CA-- Do you have a cause, perhaps a beef with your government, school, employer, homeowners association or even the news media?  Do you have something you need to promote or sell?  You can unleash that beast in your smartphone and get results!  If your voice is not being heard you’ve apparently found yourself helpless in calling attention to your situation.  Don’t expect others to speak up for you, but now you can speak up for yourself through technology. Yes, you can tell your story to the masses on your own terms.  It’s far easier than you may think.   Your smartphone has a powerful video camera and video editing system.  You just must be able to tell a coherent and compelling story.  You use that smartphone to shoot, write, edit and create your story just as any seasoned TV journalist or vlogger would. You simply sign up for a free Youtube account.  An important part is creating the tags or search words that...

Breezy Love Rocking! Winettka, IL —My work has taken me to Europe, Mexico and even India.  I’ve met some amazing people during my adventures.  Last summer I somehow found myself at a great concert.  The venue was the spacious back yard of a beautiful home where some wonderful intimate concerts are held.  The weather could not have been nicer.  I had an elegant date for the evening but we did not quite know what to expect.  I loaded up with the wine, cheese grapes and other snacks in lieu of dinner. I grabbed a front row seat and the show began.  The opening act was a precocious and amazing teen, Breezy Love .  She writes, sings and plays a guitar.   Soon she was wowing the audience with her raw talent.  This youngster absolutely owned her audience as few pros can ever equal.  The star of the show was, Logan Brill who was not in anyway, chopped liver she has been honing her craft already for years.  Logan did n...
