Antiques Roadshow executive producer Marsha Bemko, Line Opinion Panel on Secretary of State Dianna Duran not guilty plea

Watch a behind the scenes look at the Albuquerque stop of “Antiques Roadshow.” The latest season of the program kicks off this month with three episodes in Albuquerque; the Albuquerque episodes air on Ch.5.1 Mondays at 7:00 & 8:00 p.m. September 28, October 5 & 12. Gene Grant sits down in studio with executive producer Marsha Bemko and appraiser James Supp.

The line opinion panelists will also debate the latest news stories around the state. Secretary of State Dianna Duran entered a not guilty plea this week for charges she faces related to the use of campaign funds. New Mexico state representative Antonio “Moe” Maestas has also acknowledged that he failed to report over $11,000 in campaign contributions last year. Should more steps be taken to hold elected officials accountable when it comes to filing campaign finance reports? The line also discusses allegations that the city of Albuquerque and the Albuquerque Police Department are not sharing information about reforms with members of the Police Oversight Board and Governor Susana Martinez’s newly released energy plan for the state.
