Portantino hits the air waves in new talk show
Former state Assemblyman Anthony Portantino will discuss social issues in California on a new talk show.
“Before I go back into politics I want to share as much information on hot topics as I can,” Portantino said in a statement. “Charter gave me the opportunity to probe current issues that I feel passionate about and to ask tough questions.”
Portantino has already filmed two episodes of the program. The first focuses on HIV and AIDS, while the second is a discussion on Gov. Jerry Brown’s prison realignment program.
“The Question is with Anthony Portantino” is scheduled to air on California Channel 101 8 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays and at 7:30 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays.
