Erin Moriarty will be on to talk about the West Memphis Three story which airs this weekend on 48 Hours.

I have followed the West Memphis Three since the documentary first aired on HBO back in the 90s. In my opinion, these three men have been wrongly accused and should be exonerated of all charges.

Two Years of EITMfans!

EITMfans has celebrated its second birthday...

I honestly can't believe that after two years, I'm still blogging about Elliot in the Morning. Like you, I'm just a loyal listener whose day just wouldn't be the same without hearing the show every morning.

My traffic has increased a lot this past year thanks to DCRTV who has linked me on several occasions. Also, a special thanks to Scotty for all of his help with audio.

With over 1,200 posts and counting I plan on riding this out as long as the show remains on the air. Thanks so much for all of your emails and comments, but most of all, thanks for stopping by EITMfans!

On Friday 2/5/10...

Brandon Noble will be on the show to talk about Super Bowl XLIV this Sunday.

Goodbye Patricia Guadalupe, Hello Melissa Correa!

Patricia Guadalupe has been a reporter for DC's all-news radio station WTOP for several years...

For many of those years, Elliot and The Class have poked fun at the way she says her name. She speaks in perfect English until the end of her report, then she signs off with a thick Spanish accent.

According to DCRTV, Patricia has now left WTOP for an organization where she can use her Spanish more often, the National Association of Latino Elected Officials.

Oddly enough, there is a reporter at NBC 12 in Richmond who Elliot and The Class say is worse...

Melissa Corrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrea!

Club Velvet Loses Liquor License!

Sam Moore just can't keep himself out of trouble...



From the Richmond Times-Dispatch:

A state hearing officer today revoked the liquor license for Velvet strip club in Richmond’s Shockoe Bottom.

Administrative Hearing Officer Clara A. Williamson issued the 57-page opinion this afternoon that found nine violations of state ABC law, including allowing sale to and consumption of alcoholic beverages by minors and people who were already intoxicated; allowing public nudity; and creating a haven for illegal activities.

The decision to revoke the license is subject to appeal to the Virginia Alcoholic Beverage Control Board and ultimately to Richmond Circuit Court. The club has 30 days to file a notice of appeal, during which time it can continue to serve liquor.

It will continue to keep its liquor license until it exhausts the appeal process.

Williamson’s ruling directly implicated Samuel J.T. Moore III, managing member of L.A. Diner LLC, which owns the club on South 15th Street.

“The evidence in this case demonstrates that there was massive consumption of alcoholic beverages on the premises of Velvet by underage persons with the full knowledge of Mr. Moore,” she wrote.

The ruling also found that Moore allowed alcohol to be sold after hours and taken off the licensed premises, as dancers accompanied customers through his second-floor residence to the third floor, where they performed lap dances, often fully nude.

Two years ago, Elliot spoke with Club Velvet owner Sam Moore about his legal troubles. Listen below:
