Charter
* Re “Riordan Seeks City Charter Compromise,” Jan. 9: The article stated that your sources said my present employer, City Council member Rita Walters, made political and professional threats against me as part of a campaign to defeat the Los Angeles Elected Charter Commission’s proposal for a new city charter. That is simply untrue. I have known Rita Walters for over 15 years. She is a person of honesty, compassion and, most of all, a person of integrity.
While the council member and I may differ in our views about charter reform, she respects my position as an elected charter commissioner.
