"Ed Bradley, vice president and general manager of KSLA-TV12: "I'll make a decision in the early part of next year," said Bradley, who added, "I'll be out of here" in reference to his future with the local television affiliate if he chooses to run. Already, a group of business leaders and community activists that calls itself Friends of Ed Bradley has established a Web site -- www.change06.org -- that touts Bradley's pending candidacy. He's also ceased doing editorial comments for the news station."
