More Hypocrisy from Hollywood Lefties

Kenneth R. Weiss

Public beach remains a private playground
So close, yet out of reach

The vacant beach at right is county-owned but remains largely inaccessible to the public
Wealthy neighbors have fought for decades to thwart access to the county-owned El Sol Beach in Malibu.

El Sol County Beach doesn’t show up on maps of Malibu. Its bluff-top access way remains locked away behind a rusted chain-link and barbed-wire fence plastered with no-trespassing signs. The sandy beach below is effectively walled off by private property and rocky points of land at either end.

As a result, a public strip of beach serves mostly as a private enclave for adjacent property owners, including Michael Eisner, former chief executive of Walt Disney Co., and Gregory J. Bonann, co-creator of the “Baywatch” television series.

[...]

The sandy cove of El Sol, meanwhile, remains accessible only to immediate neighbors and intrepid beach walkers willing to make the 20-minute trek at low tide, scrambling between algae-slick rocks and onrushing waves.

“It’s one of the last little secret spots,” Bonann said.

Do as I say, not as I do.
At least a bit of truth appears in the LAT every so often.
