Posted on April 16th, 2010 by admin in journalistic ethics | 15 Comments »

Now get this–"I conducted myself in an appropriate way," says Mirthala Salinas, shown with L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
Can sleeping with another womans husband can be called appropriate behavior, is this family values we hear so much about?
?LOS ANGELES, California (AP) — Spanish-language network Telemundo has placed a newscaster on leave while it investigates whether her romantic relationship with Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa breached journalistic ethics, TV station KVEA said ThursdayThe Telemundo affiliate announced the investigation two days after Villaraigosa, whose wife has filed for divorce, acknowledged he had been in an extramarital affair with newswoman Mirthala Salinas for about a year.

"We will conduct this investigation with the utmost respect to personal privacy and journalistic standards," said Manuel Abud, the station’s general manager.

The mayor’s office had no comment, Villaraigosa spokesman Sean Clegg said.

Salinas said in a statement that she would cooperate with the investigation. She said, "I am confident that when all the facts are analyzed, it will be clear that I conducted myself in an appropriate way."

Salinas once covered the mayor as a political reporter. Telemundo took her off the political beat about 11 months ago after she disclosed her relationship to station management, the mayor has said.

Still, as the station’s news anchor, Salinas read an on-air report last month on the mayor’s separation from his wife. At the time, Villaraigosa declined to say whether he was involved with another woman.
Since confirming his romantic relationship with Salinas at a news conference Tuesday, Villaraigosa has all but disappeared.

if you ask me, she is a homewrecking tramp, but don’t blame her entirely. It takes two to tango, and Mayor Villariagosa has cheated before on his wife. Back in the 90s when his wife was in hospital with thyroid cancer, he messed around with one of her friends, one of the godmothers of his children. Nice guy, huh?

    She’s insane if she believes that what she did was acceptable. Sleeping with another woman’s husband is totally uncalled for and disrespectful – They both lack morals, self-respect, and class.

    Yes, he should be relieved from service (or what ever you want to call it) When you run on close "Family values" you should at least respect it…having an affair must be part of those "family values" that he was running on.

    You have to remember that Mayor Reconquista is also a member of La Raza. I think that says more about his so-called values than a roll in the hay with a talking head.

    What do you expect from this loser.

    He went to the "People’s College of Law", a non ABA law school in California. He took the bar four times and did not pass.
