There must be times when Berkeley Mayor Tom Bates wishes he could catch a break in the media. Be it hyper local
or nation wide, chances are if you read about Berkeley and the Mayor, it’s not so great.
So imagine his pride when he clicked send on his monthly email-newsletter today announcing his appearance on National Television’s highest rated morning show:
“I will be featured on NBC’s TODAY Show (Bay Area Channel 3), tomorrow, Tuesday May 12th at 8:09am. The two-minute piece chronicles my success in selling my car and using alternate forms of transit in an attempt to lower my carbon footprint.”
