There’s a New Blog in Town
Editorial staff

Longtime Mission Viejo resident and political activist Brad Morton is reviving his Mission Viejo Dispatch, which he first launched in 2004. Following a hiatus, Brad has revised and enhanced its look and features.

The MissionViejoCA.org blog publisher and staffers welcome the Dispatch’s revival. With Brad’s background (law, activism, news writing), he brings expertise and experience to the quest for open government. Blog staffers worked in Brad’s unsuccessful 2004 bid for a city council seat when more than 12,000 residents voted for him. Staffers also note that Brad frequently was the lone vote for responsible government when he served on the city planning commission in 2005-2006.

MissionViejoCA.org writers anticipate the Dispatch will complement rather than duplicate its offerings. One staff member said, “With Brad’s background as an attorney, he has the tenacity and patience required for discovery. The weasels in city hall warrant watching, and Brad will do a great job of exposing them. We’ll continue doing what we do, and I hope the spirit of friendly competition will make us even better at it.”
