*By Rev. Jim Conn Former mayor, Santa Monica*

I’m stunned at the attacks on Kevin McKeown (“Attack on the airwaves,” Oct. 25, Page 1). From my experience, he’s the hardest working member of the current City Council. He does his homework. He reads his staff reports. He returns his phone calls. He answers his e-mail. And he always has an intelligent and thought-through approach to the problems facing the city. Kevin always puts residents and workers first. Maybe that’s the reason for all the hate mail.
