And what do talk-radio show hosts say about “Talk Radio”--that movie where off-the-wall chatter between listener and host bounces back and feeds on itself and where, from the very beginning, the viewer knows that the man at the mike will be assassinated?Some seemingly speak non-stop about it. Others are not talking at all. Still others have resisted seeing it. And KABC-AM (790), which likes to call itself the “talk radio” station, has banned any advertising or even discussion of the film on its air.“I’m angry about it,” said KFI-AM’s Tom Leykis, “because there was no need to kill the main character. Using the shooting of (Denver radio show host) Alan Berg was, I think, a smarmy attempt to capitalize on all the publicity that that murder got. Alan Berg was a far more interesting character than the character in the movie. . . . What really troubles me is that this is the second movie in less than a year where a radio host is killed. Remember ‘Betrayed,’ where a liberal talk-show host got shot by a right-wing extremist? It’s real convenient for Hollywood to use radio talk-show hosts as fodder.”“It scares the hell out of me,” admitted deejay Jay Thomas of KPWR-FM, who worries about “Talk Radio” prompting copy-cat murder attempts.“Some nut goes up there and shoots the hell out of him. Early in my career in Los Angeles, I was chased by a nut with a knife. I guess he thought my face was incredibly ugly on the bus. . . .,” Thomas quipped, referring to KPWR’s ads plastered across the sides of Los Angeles buses with his face and the slogan, “We apologize for Jay Thomas this morning.”“The movie was so dark and depressing,” Thomas said. “That’s not the kind of radio I do. I play records; I make jokes. They threaten me, I take it back.”“Talk Radio” is loosely based on the life of Berg, a liberal who was gunned down by white supremacists in 1984. Like Berg, whose show was on station KOA, the character of Barry Champlain (played by Eric Bogosian) had been in the men’s clothing business and had a quirky yet close relationship with his ex-wife. Berg was killed in the driveway of his condominium after arriving home from a dinner date with her.“It’s a terrible film,” fumed George Green, president and general manager at KABC-AM. “It’s a misrepresentation of what this

ABC News, he has already taken the two deputy district attorneys who prepared the brothers' resentencing off the case."It tells me that there's a chance that the DA is playing politics," said Freedman. "That politics are coming into play here, and it concerns me that what's happening is there are favors being performed."ABC News also learned that Hochman's first outreach to the Menendez family was to the single family member opposed to the release of the brothers: Kitty's brother Milton Andersen."It doesn't feel good," said Freedman when asked about what kind of message that sends.Hochman recently addressed the claim that the state did not recognize the alleged sexual abuse that the young boys endured at the hands of their father, telling Deadline, "Erik Menendez was able to testify in great detail about all the sexual abuse he experienced. He was even able to testify about sexual abuse that Lyle experienced.""Do you feel that was the case?" Gutman asked Freedman."The evidence shows it wasn't the case," responded Freedman. "You have a number of witnesses, a number of family members, who weren't able to testify about the abuse that they saw."Hochman has also said he'll take a close look at the brother's rehabilitation in prison. He has hinted that he might separate their resentencing cases, which could mean that Erik could be released before Lyle, who has a couple of minor infractions.ABC News contributed to this report.Copyright © 2025 KABC Television, LLC.

Gorbis, a friend of the previous owner’s family told KABC. “I [virtually] grew up in that house. To see how it is now is just beyond words.” He emphasized that these security measures were overwhelmed by relentless trespassers, but has now increased security with 24/7 armed guards and is working on repairing the properties REUTERSMiddleton’s other mansion, valued at $6.53 million, hasn’t fared much better. With unpaid property taxes piling up, a lien has been placed on the house, which has seen police called there six times in September alone. Just this month, 10 squatters were evicted from the site. Local officials are losing patience. Councilmember Nithya Raman blasted Middleton for what she called his “egregious violation of the law,” emphasizing the serious public safety risks posed by the decaying properties. “Irresponsible property owners must take accountability for their property or face action from the city,” Raman said. Middleton expressed frustration over the continued vandalism, even after recent clean-up efforts, and stated his intent to sell the houses once they are restored. KTLA5In a statement to The Post, Middleton expressed his regret over the situation: “I would like to apologize to the people of Los Angeles, and especially to my neighbors. What’s happened to the two properties I own is unacceptable, and no matter what caused it, I own the houses.” He also defended his efforts, stating that he had hired security teams to protect the properties. “Both houses have had a property manager and/or security in place, including drive-by
