'Como La Flor' author opens up about Selena and the Quintanillas
<p>SAN ANTONIO - “Hush, dad. I’m talking.”</p> <p>Selena to Abraham. On the bus. In Austin. She was in control. Says Joe Nick Patoski, the man who wrote the book “Selena: Como La Flor.”</p> <p>At the time, Patoski was writing a story on Selena’s burgeoning stardom for Texas Monthly. And the book… that wasn’t even on the radar; that only came after her death.</p> <p>Patoski spoke to News 4, along with <a href="https://news4sanantonio.com/news/san-antonios-voice/chris-perez-talks-selena-the-quintanillas-and-new-ventures" target="_blank" title="https://news4sanantonio.com/news/san-antonios-voice/chris-perez-talks-selena-the-quintanillas-and-new-ventures">many others close to Selena Quintanilla-Perez</a>, in reflection of her passing. [Editor’s note: Patoski spoke to us just before the pandemic.]</p> <p>In this interview, Patoski reflects on Selena’s rise in the music industry, but also explains her other dream and all that was lost in March 1995. He also describes how Yolanda Saldivar, still imprisoned for Selena’s murder, befriended the Tejano singer.</p> <p>The aftermath of Selena’s death revealed a lot about Texas, says Patoski. Those who didn’t know her. And those completely devastated by her sudden passing.</p> <p><a href="http://joenickp.com/" target="_blank" title="http://joenickp.com/">Patoski </a>has written about Texans for decades. He’s also written books on Steve Ray Vaughan and Willie Nelson. Patoski was a staff writer at Texas Monthly for 18 years and has also written for the Texas Observer, People Magazine, National Geographic and The New York Times.</p>

Mayor Ron Nirenberg wants to know 'Who got rich while Texans suffered?'
<p>With many San Antonio residents still reeling from February’s devastating winter storm, Mayor Ron Nirenberg opens up about the aftermath.</p> <p>In a sit-down interview with Randy Beamer, Nirenberg talks about the city’s role and problems dealing with the sudden blackouts. He talks about when the city learned of ERCOT’s power crisis and what happened from there.</p> <p>He also gets into how local agencies responded and communicated trying to cope with the freeze, blackouts and water disruptions – and how quickly the city is making changes to improve things.</p> <p>And Nirenberg speaks out about the state’s role in what happened, and his efforts to make sure San Antonians don’t bear the brunt of the huge costs of energy during the blackouts.</p> <p>In response to the pandemic, the Mayor speaks up about the importance of masks. [Note: We recorded this interview one day before Governor Greg Abbott announced his decision to open up Texas 100% and remove the state mask mandate.]</p> <p>And on a very surprising personal note, Nirenberg tells Randy how very close he came to taking an entirely different path in life and working in sports media!</p> <p>He opens up about the reason he turned down a BIG job offer from an iconic company in the northeast and moved to San Antonio instead.</p> <p>Nirenberg was elected Mayor in 2017 before winning re-election in 2019. Prior to that, he served two terms as Councilman for District 8 in San Antonio.</p>
