Pittsburgh City Councilman Bill Peduto was a guest on 93.7 The Zone radio today with John McIntire and Gab Bonesso. He was there to speak about his sparring with POG (P-G article, Sue's take, Skip's take) and he continued to press that his accusation that the Pittsburgh Organizing Group (POG) was responsible for the vandalism of Shadyside stores was based on past actions by some POG members, that the acts of vandalism always occurred after POG demonstrations and that eye witness accounts of the vandals matched descriptions of POG protesters (black hoodies). Peduto made clear that he thought that POG had done some good things and that it was only some members or "affiliates" who may be responsible for the vandalism. He said that any vandalism -- especially of such places as The Quiet Storm and the East End Co-op -- only served to hurt their cause. He also said that there will be a Pittsburgh City Paper article on the subject in tomorrow's edition.
In the course of interviewing Peduto, McIntire brought up the subject of Mayor Luke Ravenstahl's creepy and childish Tiger Woods obsession. Peduto let out a rumor that there exists video of Luke stalking Tiger. Apparently American Express has a hospitality tent at Oakmont where they are giving out CD's (DVDs?) of the event and they captured footage of Lil Lukey chasing Tiger from hole to hole in the background of some scenes.
I'd LOVE for someone -- anonymous or not -- to provide this blog with a copy of that CD/DVD!
Very scary!
Note: Bram has an interesting interview with Bill Peduto here.
UPDATE! I also meant to mention that Jon Delano was also on McIntire this afternoon and repeated that he had indeed contacted the Mayor's Office repeatedly trying to get a comment on his Tiger Woods story which was eventually broadcast on KDKA. Lukey claimed on WDVE this morning that Delano had not tried to contact him. John McIntire called this for the LIE it is on Opie's part.
