Newsom’s press team made this media training reel for their boss over the weekend.

Watch and learn what not to do media-wise.

The walkaway mayor walks away again.

Mayor Gavin Newsom finally sat down with CBS 5 political reporter Hank Plante.

Watch ’til the end when Newsom rips off his microphone and goes “off the record”.

Really?

In public, the Newsom administration puts on a really good game face. But in private, there are all kinds of awkward silences and a lack of basic civility. And now the window is open and the public is seeing what many leading city people have seen for the past couple of years.

"If you guys asked nicer questions, I would show up for work."

CBS 5 – Reporter Joe Vazquez tries to pin down the man-child mayor to ask him about his new disappearing act, but the mayor just walks away.

Now where I have I seen this before?

Why?

Gavin Newsom's 2009-10 budget is killing the LGBT community.

Fog City Journal — Public health and human service activists staged a die-in protest during Pride 2009 today to draw attention to Mayor Gavin Newsom’s budget that includes over $121 million in cuts to health and human services.

These cuts are killing us, specifically cuts to HIV prevention and care, and public health safety net services being decimated in this budget.

Mayor Newsom’s 2009-2010 budget makes severe reductions to HIV/AIDS prevention, health services, counseling, education, advocacy, outreach, housing and testing.

No sooner did the Gavinator lauch a slick new “look at me I’m pretty and I’m running for governor” video that some nice person decided to fact check it.

Gavin Newsom has a long history of stealing credit for other’s work.

If you love Gavin like we do, you’ll really enjoy this video which distills his purloining ways.

Mary Van Note is inspired to make changes in her career when she realizes the object of her romantic obsessions, Mayor Gavin Newsom, would never bang a deli working loser.  A personal banker, maybe.

The Mary Van Note Show

I’m not sure why I laugh everytime I watch this silly video.

Maybe it’s the foley.  Maybe I’m shallow.  Mmmmm, probably.

Anyway, you have to admit that it’s all about the hair with this greaser.

A while back, Mayor Gavin had an affair with the wife of his best friend and campaign manager, Alex Tourk.  Guess he never heard the line “don’t dip your pen in the company inkwell” — “don’t fish off the company pier” is one of my favorites.

…deep down smart voters suspect this: You’re probably just a frat boy.

Schtupped your best friend’s wife while she worked for you in your office?

The man code be broken now.

This video sums up our man-child mayor.  With all the money he spends on shills and spin doctors, you’d think he’d be media trained by now.  No.  Not Really.  Watch and see.

No wonder he keeps abondoning San Francisco during a severe budget crisis, and is now employing Rovian tactics for image and damage control.
