Good-government types and insomniacs who tuned into Monday’s 5 a.m. airing of a Suffolk County legislative committee meeting may be forgiven for thinking the legislators had gone mute.
Zabby, the public-access advocate, called this morning to say a technical mishap at Cablevision Systems Corp. caused the show to air without sound. It will be rebroadcast at 7 a.m. Thursday on Channel 20 in the Hauppauge and Brookhaven cable systems.
Zabby said this isn’t the first time that her tapes have aired minus sound but she didn’t seemed discouraged. In fact, she said she plans to be taping this week’s legislative committee meetings for broadcast.

Kennedy Jr. (R-Nesconset), Ricardo Montano (D-Central Islip), Kate M. Browning (WFP-Shirley), Louis D’Amaro (D-North Babylon) and Edward P. Romaine (R-Center Moriches).

Airing of a Suffolk County legislative committee meeting with out audio a bad thing? Oh my! I don't think so, i finally won't have to listen Legislator Vivian Vilorio-Fisher pontificate, bloviate and try to subjugate. A real piece of work. What is Ms. fishers position of illegal immigration again? Let them all in as long as farmingville is 8 miles south of her home of pleasentville, right?
