[Kzyxtalk] Fwd: Re: open lines and trading times

This email (below) has ongoing cross-talk about Mendocino Public Radio, 
KZYX. More important, it has detailed discussion of John 
Sacowicz/Sakowicz. Funny: Sako/Saco is constantly threatening lawsuits 
but never files them. Why? Who'd take his case? Lawyers hate flakes. 
Much about him is cloudy because he strives to keep it that way, and his 
friends fall right in behind him, perpetuating falsehoods, but enough is 
known and vouched for that he can be readily called "a known quantity". 
So, suckers and potential suckers, read what's at the ukiahcommunityblog 
below, and don't say you haven't been warned. The man should not be a 
part of any supposedly rational discussion of anything except the study 
of psychopathy. (God, I'm tired of warning this county about this man.)

As these messages pile up, perhaps the Bohemian's Gretchen Giles' 
editorialized revelation was true. For anyone not in the loop at the 
time, some of Mr. Sakowicz's history is worth revisiting.

There is no difference between Aigner and Coate. Think of them as a 
two-headed hydra.

I'll go further.

It's my belief that Aigner trained Coate to be the pit bull that he is. 
She trained him. Remember, Aigner has been at the station since its 
inception. That was 25 years ago. Aigner has seen the station's many and 
various general managers come and go. Come and go. Come and go. Aigner 
is the one, true survivor.

You have to give Aigner credit: She fought her way to the head of the 
line -- a mile-long line of hippies.

You have to give Aigner credit: The only other job she's ever had in the 
Anderson Valley was driving a Bruce's Bread Bakery truck. Now -- and for 
many years before now -- she has been the real shot caller at KZYX.

Coate may be immaterial.

He is not the only one who believes that he was set up. The trouble is 
that no one was around for that conversation with Aigner so her denying 
the fact that it ever happened is her only way out.
One thing I am sure of--McKenty is not a liar while I wish I could 
believe that Aigner & Coate have the same regard for the truth. I 
personally have caught Coate in a lie about his being given the title of 
Executive Director and I know how closely the two work together to back 
each other up.
The coming election might give us a better idea of who the members think 
is more believable.

John, as has been explained to all us programmers, it was NOT the 
profanity that got Doug suspended - it was his failure to respond by 
shutting off the caller, apologizing to the listeners, and reiterating 
station policy on profanity. (I didn't hear the show, but it's my 
understanding from those who did, that Doug simply let the conversation 
go on.  As management had previously made clear, they view that as a 
potentially serious FCC infraction.)   WDan followed the policy and was 
temporarily suspended (NOT a "free pass" as you allege).  I don't know 
anything about the Sherry Glaser incident.

I know Doug believes he was set up.  Doug believes a lot of things that 
aren't necessarily so.  He sees conspiracies everywhere.  His belief 
that he was being set up for dismissal became a kind of self-fulfilling 
prophecy. (When you believe strongly in something, you behave in such a 
way as to make it become true.)

    Doug McKenty was kicked off the air as a result of Coate's selective
    enforcement of the FCC's profanity policy, Tim, and you know it.
    Recently, W. Dan got a free pass. He was back on the air after a
    token suspension. Someone told me a profanity also aired on Sherry
    Glaser's show. I don't know for sure, because I didn't hear it.

    In any case, read Doug's recent letter in the Ukiah Daily Journal
    explaining how he believes he was set up by station management.
