His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cb>PG&E Bankruptcy\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On Tuesday, PG&E filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, claiming it faces tens of billions of dollars in potential liability costs for deadly and destructive wildfires in 2017 and 2018.

That’s how a baby otter named Langly ended up in the center’s care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The sharks mistake otters for their more preferred prey of seals and sea lions. And unfortunately many of these attacks end in a fatality for the otter,” said Dr. Cara Field, staff veterinarian at the center, which is located in Sausalito.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Langly was found on a beach in San Luis Obispo County in May of last year. Her mother had been bitten by a shark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So when the mom stranded, Langly was found clinging to her, but was still alive and actually in pretty good shape. So the mother actually died during the course of being rescued, and we had this little pup who was not quite ready to be on her own yet,” Field said. “So we were able to take her in and get her fed up, and slowly help her grow and start to learn how to forage and be an independent sea otter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Langly even made the list of contenders for The Marine Mammal Center’s prestigious 2018 Patient of the Year award:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/TMMC/status/1088850240294322178\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While in rehabilitation, Langly bonded with another stranded young otter named Sprout, who had been rescued off Del Monte Beach in Monterey by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Monterey Bay Aquarium\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday, both were loaded onto a boat in crates and taken back to the ocean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re going to be going to a kelp bed off along \u003ca href=\"https://canneryrow.com/our-story/john-steinbeck/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cannery Row\u003c/a>. That’s kind of just out there sort of the northwest side of the harbor,” said Karl Mayer, as he drove the boat. He’s the sea otter field response coordinator for the aquarium. After the crate doors opened, both otters dove into Monterey Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sprout and Langly are tagged and have tracking devices, each programmed to a specific frequency. When the otters are at the surface, a radio receiver on the boat pings. There’s also a plane and pilot on standby to track the otters’ signal by air. And onshore a team is also listening and watching the otters with telescopes. This intense observation will continue for the next two weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Usually within the first two weeks that they’re out there, you’ve got a pretty good idea of whether things are starting to go well, or whether or not you need to intercede and try to recapture,” Mayer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11722581\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/OtterAtSea-800x545.jpg\" alt=\"Two young sea otters, Langly and Sprout, were released into the wild this week after being rehabilitated by The Marine Mammal Center and Monterey Bay Aquarium.\" width=\"800\" height=\"545\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11722581\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/OtterAtSea-800x545.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/OtterAtSea-160x109.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/OtterAtSea.jpg 877w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Two young sea otters, Langly and Sprout, were released into the wild this week after being rehabilitated by The Marine Mammal Center and Monterey Bay Aquarium. \u003ccite>(Sruti Mamidanna/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It’s a lot of effort for these two otters. Their care so far has cost about $15,000 per otter. They eat about a quarter of their body weight a day in sea creatures like purple urchins, crabs and squid. Michelle Staedler, the aquarium’s Sea Otter Program manager, said their success in the wild is important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinemammalcenter.org/education/marine-mammal-information/sea-otter.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California sea otters\u003c/a> remain threatened, although their population has been slowly growing from around 50 in the late 1930s to about 3,000 today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Years ago it was over 10,000 otters along the coast of California, and it would be really nice if we could see that again. Most of those animals back then were hunted to near-extinction … for their fur,” Staedler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the biggest threat is deadly shark bites. But more immediately for otters Sprout and Langly, the top concern is that they will have the skills to find enough food to survive, Staedler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the otters struggle too much, they’ll be brought back in for more rehabilitation. But if they adjust, they’ll be considered wild once again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

That’s how a baby otter named Langly ended up in the center’s care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The sharks mistake otters for their more preferred prey of seals and sea lions. And unfortunately many of these attacks end in a fatality for the otter,” said Dr. Cara Field, staff veterinarian at the center, which is located in Sausalito.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Langly was found on a beach in San Luis Obispo County in May of last year. Her mother had been bitten by a shark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So when the mom stranded, Langly was found clinging to her, but was still alive and actually in pretty good shape. So the mother actually died during the course of being rescued, and we had this little pup who was not quite ready to be on her own yet,” Field said. “So we were able to take her in and get her fed up, and slowly help her grow and start to learn how to forage and be an independent sea otter.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Langly even made the list of contenders for The Marine Mammal Center’s prestigious 2018 Patient of the Year award:\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Their care so far has cost about $15,000 per otter. They eat about a quarter of their body weight a day in sea creatures like purple urchins, crabs and squid. Michelle Staedler, the aquarium’s Sea Otter Program manager, said their success in the wild is important.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinemammalcenter.org/education/marine-mammal-information/sea-otter.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California sea otters\u003c/a> remain threatened, although their population has been slowly growing from around 50 in the late 1930s to about 3,000 today.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Years ago it was over 10,000 otters along the coast of California, and it would be really nice if we could see that again. Most of those animals back then were hunted to near-extinction … for their fur,” Staedler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the biggest threat is deadly shark bites. But more immediately for otters Sprout and Langly, the top concern is that they will have the skills to find enough food to survive, Staedler said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the otters struggle too much, they’ll be brought back in for more rehabilitation. But if they adjust, they’ll be considered wild once again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Even if you don't directly get power from PG&E, this is a big deal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E is one of the largest utilities in the United States, powering the homes and businesses of about 16 million Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bankruptcy will affect electricity rates, the state's renewable energy goals and wildfire lawsuits. It could very well change the kinds of utilities we have in Northern California. It's also going to be a very long and complicated process, so don't expect anything to change quickly.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>So my power isn't getting shut off?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10587095\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity-400x267.jpg 400w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity-1440x960.jpg 1440w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2015/07/electricity-960x640.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nope! The lights will stay on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E filed what's known as a Chapter 11 bankruptcy. That means that it wants to reorganize the company and get rid of some debts; it's the same kind of bankruptcy that the utility filed for in 2001. And just like then, we should expect some version of PG&E to emerge from bankruptcy in several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might remember the blackouts and brownouts of the 2001 energy crisis. This bankruptcy is very different. PG&E has access to the electricity it needs and customers should not see any kind of reduced service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The utility has 120 days to announce how it wants to reorganize. There's been a lot of talk about how the utility could sell off its \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/01/04/677832387/devastating-wildfires-force-californias-largest-utility-to-plan-sale-of-gas-asse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gas division\u003c/a> or even parts of its energy grid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also lots of laws and agencies that exist to ensure that you will still get safe and reliable power. These agencies are part of the bankruptcy proceeding, and PG&E can't make any changes to how it delivers power without their signoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Is anyone winning from this?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11721848\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-1095654954-e1548738691357.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1260\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11721848\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A traffic cone sits next to a Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) truck on Jan. 17, 2019 in Fairfax, California. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Yes. There are potentially three big winners: PG&E, big banks and lawyers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The point of Chapter 11 bankruptcy is for a company to reorganize and get rid of debt so that it can emerge from bankruptcy as a healthy company. PG&E emerged from its previous bankruptcy as a profitable company with one of the highest rate of returns for a utility company in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To continue functioning, PG&E is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721731/pge-regulators-ok-utilitys-request-to-borrow-6-billion-amid-bankruptcy-crisis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">requesting to borrow $5.5 billion\u003c/a> in financing from nine major banks that would allow the company to keep paying its bills. The reason these banks are willing to lend PG&E the money is because they'll be some of the first creditors to be paid back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bankruptcy cases also can generate hundreds of millions of dollars in fees for lawyers, bankers and consultants. A 2014 bankruptcy filing for a Texas utility yielded more than $600 million in professional fees, according to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.chron.com/business/energy/article/Energy-company-s-bankruptcy-generating-12789018.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Texas Lawbook\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Remind me, why is PG&E doing this?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11722372\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS11522_452938222-e1548901093392.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1331\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11722372\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A hard hat sits on the ground at a Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) work site on July 30, 2014 in San Francisco, California. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This is an unusual bankruptcy because PG&E is still solvent. As part of its filing, PG&E estimated its liabilities at about $51 billion and its assets at more than $71 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What PG&E \u003cem>doesn't\u003c/em> have access to is credit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because PG&E \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717965/pge-announces-plans-for-bankruptcy-protection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">could have to pay out tens of billions of dollars\u003c/a> to victims of the devastating wildfires of 2017 and 2018. But we don't know exactly how much PG&E will owe fire victims because none of those lawsuits ever made it far enough in court for any kind of settlement or verdict to be reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State fire officials are also still investigating whether PG&E equipment was responsible for several fires, including the Camp Fire in November 2018. So far Cal Fire has determined that PG&E equipment was responsible for 18 fires in 2017, and found that the utility broke state law in 11 of those cases. Under California state law, utilities are responsible for any damage their equipment causes, even if they weren't found negligent. However, some of those costs can be passed on to ratepayers under a controversial new bill that passed last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/pge\">PG&E Bankruptcy: How We Got Here\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/pge\">\u003cimg src=\"https://u.s.kqed.net/2019/01/14/PGEWorkersLift.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>PG&E estimated that it could owe about $30 billion in liabilities in its most recent bankruptcy filing. But the company hasn't disclosed how it came to that number in filings in bankruptcy court or with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. How much PG&E could owe is going to be a big debate during the bankruptcy proceeding. Some shareholders and attorneys representing fire victims \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719917/pge-says-bankruptcy-could-take-3-years-as-shareholders-fight-filing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">say that there's no reason\u003c/a> for the company to go bankrupt because we don't know what exactly that liability will be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what does all of this liability have to do with credit and bankruptcy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E's stock began to crash while the North Bay fires still raged in October 2017, and then again after PG&E told state regulators that the company had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11705306/pge-transmission-line-may-be-tied-to-disastrous-butte-county-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">problems with its equipment\u003c/a> just before the Camp Fire began on Nov. 8, 2018.

Even if you don't directly get power from PG&E, this is a big deal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E is one of the largest utilities in the United States, powering the homes and businesses of about 16 million Californians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bankruptcy will affect electricity rates, the state's renewable energy goals and wildfire lawsuits. It could very well change the kinds of utilities we have in Northern California.

The lights will stay on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E filed what's known as a Chapter 11 bankruptcy. That means that it wants to reorganize the company and get rid of some debts; it's the same kind of bankruptcy that the utility filed for in 2001. And just like then, we should expect some version of PG&E to emerge from bankruptcy in several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might remember the blackouts and brownouts of the 2001 energy crisis. This bankruptcy is very different. PG&E has access to the electricity it needs and customers should not see any kind of reduced service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The utility has 120 days to announce how it wants to reorganize. There's been a lot of talk about how the utility could sell off its \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/01/04/677832387/devastating-wildfires-force-californias-largest-utility-to-plan-sale-of-gas-asse\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">gas division\u003c/a> or even parts of its energy grid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are also lots of laws and agencies that exist to ensure that you will still get safe and reliable power. These agencies are part of the bankruptcy proceeding, and PG&E can't make any changes to how it delivers power without their signoff.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Is anyone winning from this?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11721848\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/GettyImages-1095654954-e1548738691357.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1260\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11721848\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A traffic cone sits next to a Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) truck on Jan. 17, 2019 in Fairfax, California. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Yes. There are potentially three big winners: PG&E, big banks and lawyers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The point of Chapter 11 bankruptcy is for a company to reorganize and get rid of debt so that it can emerge from bankruptcy as a healthy company. PG&E emerged from its previous bankruptcy as a profitable company with one of the highest rate of returns for a utility company in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To continue functioning, PG&E is \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11721731/pge-regulators-ok-utilitys-request-to-borrow-6-billion-amid-bankruptcy-crisis\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">requesting to borrow $5.5 billion\u003c/a> in financing from nine major banks that would allow the company to keep paying its bills. The reason these banks are willing to lend PG&E the money is because they'll be some of the first creditors to be paid back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bankruptcy cases also can generate hundreds of millions of dollars in fees for lawyers, bankers and consultants. A 2014 bankruptcy filing for a Texas utility yielded more than $600 million in professional fees, according to the \u003ca href=\"https://www.chron.com/business/energy/article/Energy-company-s-bankruptcy-generating-12789018.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Texas Lawbook\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Remind me, why is PG&E doing this?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11722372\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/RS11522_452938222-e1548901093392.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1331\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11722372\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A hard hat sits on the ground at a Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) work site on July 30, 2014 in San Francisco, California. \u003ccite>(Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This is an unusual bankruptcy because PG&E is still solvent. As part of its filing, PG&E estimated its liabilities at about $51 billion and its assets at more than $71 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What PG&E \u003cem>doesn't\u003c/em> have access to is credit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because PG&E \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11717965/pge-announces-plans-for-bankruptcy-protection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">could have to pay out tens of billions of dollars\u003c/a> to victims of the devastating wildfires of 2017 and 2018. But we don't know exactly how much PG&E will owe fire victims because none of those lawsuits ever made it far enough in court for any kind of settlement or verdict to be reached.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State fire officials are also still investigating whether PG&E equipment was responsible for several fires, including the Camp Fire in November 2018. So far Cal Fire has determined that PG&E equipment was responsible for 18 fires in 2017, and found that the utility broke state law in 11 of those cases. Under California state law, utilities are responsible for any damage their equipment causes, even if they weren't found negligent. However, some of those costs can be passed on to ratepayers under a controversial new bill that passed last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/pge\">PG&E Bankruptcy: How We Got Here\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/pge\">\u003cimg src=\"https://u.s.kqed.net/2019/01/14/PGEWorkersLift.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>PG&E estimated that it could owe about $30 billion in liabilities in its most recent bankruptcy filing. But the company hasn't disclosed how it came to that number in filings in bankruptcy court or with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. How much PG&E could owe is going to be a big debate during the bankruptcy proceeding. Some shareholders and attorneys representing fire victims \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11719917/pge-says-bankruptcy-could-take-3-years-as-shareholders-fight-filing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">say that there's no reason\u003c/a> for the company to go bankrupt because we don't know what exactly that liability will be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what does all of this liability have to do with credit and bankruptcy?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>PG&E's stock began to crash while the North Bay fires still raged in October 2017, and then again after PG&E told state regulators that the company had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11705306/pge-transmission-line-may-be-tied-to-disastrous-butte-county-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">problems with its equipment\u003c/a> just before the Camp Fire began on Nov. 8, 2018.
