The Breakfast Conversation

The worlds of government, academia and media converged once again for Los Angeles magazine's third Breakfast Conversation. The topic—The Obama Age: Views from Los Angeles—couldn't have been more appropriate given the President's visit to the city. Senior Editor Steve Oney moderated the animated political discussion with panelists John Emerson and Gregory Rodriguez for the group assembled at The Foundry on Melrose. City Councilmembers Tom LaBonge and Wendy Greuel stopped by before heading downtown.
