A Lawyer on Every Shore By Sheri Annis, a Los Angeles-based political & media consultant January 9, 2002 8:25 a.m. money-soaked battle is bubbling up along the Malibu coastline, pitting old-time liberals like David Geffen, Barbara Streisand, and Jeffrey Katzenberg against, well, everyone else. The elite property owners of Malibu, who wouldn't be out of place at an Al Gore fundraiser in Hollywood, have suddenly become the forceful defenders of property rights — their property rights, that is — along the beautiful Southern California coastline. And let me tell you, it's fun to watch. At issue is public access to the sand and surf. But how does the suntan crowd get to the sand if those living the life of luxury find outsiders distasteful and block the paths to what is essentially a public backyard? Steven Spielberg, Katzenberg, Streisand, Geffen, and Nancy Daly Riordan (the wife of Republican gubernatorial candidate Richard Riordan), are all prominent Democrats and Malibu homeowners who raise big bucks for liberal causes to help "the people" — but prefer that the public not actually roam too close to their fabulous homes. nationalreview.com
