Palm
Springs Personalities
Part 3 of 3
Today we conclude my interview with Palm Springs celebrity
and KNews Radio's Bulldog Bill Feingold: http://www.943knews.com/.

Bill replies: The
nickname Bulldog originated during my political campaign for a seat on the City
Council. I was one of 10 or 11 candidates. One particular candidate was
constantly providing incorrect information. I always corrected that person on
these important points. After a time, someone in the audience commented that
Mr. Feingold has the tenacity of a bulldog. The moniker has been with me ever
since.
I like it and I honor the
name bulldog. It is essence of my radio show. It is not a private life
nickname
Palm
Springs Guru asks: What do you love about Palm Springs?
Bill replies: I love the mountains. I love the weather. I
love the people.
Palm
Springs Guru asks: How can we improve life in Palm Springs?
Bill replies: Palm Springs
should have a full time mayor who lives in Palm Springs.
I learned, during my school
years that a person can improve life in his/her community by becoming actively
involved with that community.
Therefore, we can improve
life in Palm Springs by becoming actively involved with our community.
Not long after becoming a
full time resident of Palm Springs, I began attending Palm Springs City
Government meetings
Next, I applied for a
position on the Palm Springs Human Rights Council. This nine-member Commission
is appointed by the City Council. I never heard anything from them. They did
not, even, acknowledge my application.
Sometime later, after more
effort on my part, I was appointed to the Palm Springs Human Rights Commission.
I was the Vice Chair to the Chairman. Soon, I became the Chair and expanded the
Commission to include everyone’s rights. I served three years as Chairman of
the Palm Springs Human Rights Commission and Hate Crimes Task Force.
I began to get noticed and,
thanks to Gary Stone, I was asked to discuss my view points on the radio.
I ran for City Council. I
was outspent by every other candidate. I did not get elected.
Palm
Springs Guru: Bill, this has been a delightful and insightful interview. In closing, we remind everyone to tune in to the Bill
Feingold show, featuring Kevin Holmes, weekdays on KNews Radio, 94.3 FM
& 970 AM. The show is on the air from 6 AM to 9AM. More KNews information
