Wiseman perturbs the city boss

KTRK-13's Miya Shay reports on today's city council meeting, where Houston MediaSource associates showed up to bark at councilmember Addie Wiseman, who seems to have barked right back at them.

Mayor Bill White sounds perturbed that a debate over the extent to which the city should fund vulgar/obscene speech on a public access channel has sidetracked other agenda items (like harassing citizens downtown, or designing shiny new HPD badges):

All the sniping has left the mayor a little frustrated.

"Has it taken a disproportionate amount of time, particularly by Councilwoman Wiseman?" the mayor asked himself. He answered with a "Yes."

We thought we had safely retired the Boss Hogg White nickname, but if he's going to start sounding like a city boss again....

UPDATE (07-07-2005): Matt Stiles covers the story for the Chronicle.
