Actor and Oceana Foundation board member Ted Danson joined former Laguna Beach Mayor Toni Iseman and Connor Berryhill, 10, of Oceanside, of the Microactivist Foundation, speaking at a peaceful rally on Main Beach this past Saturday, Feb. 3.

Anti-drilling protestors numbered about 300 and took a stance on land and sea. Police made one arrest involving a jaywalking photographer, who had an outstanding warrant.

  1. This article says more or less nothing about the actual issue. No details. What is the pro side? What is the against side? Why bother publishing an article if it’s just a series of photos and some name dropping?

    How could offshire drilling benefit America?
    What are the dangers to Laguna Beach if offshore drilling was taking place near us?

    This article feels like its celebrating activists, on one side of this issue, without really laying out what the issue actually is.

    Answering those two questions would create an actual news article.
