Good morning Norman. 

The Mission Statement, as posted on our website and cited by you in your email, is as follows: 

KZYX&Z, 90.7, 91.5 and 88.1, is the community non-commercial radio station of Mendocino County, serving several counties in Northern California. Its programming and operational philosophy is controlled by its membership, which is open to all. Through its dedication to balanced, excellent programming, Mendocino County Public Broadcasting reflects the rich diversity of the county, while promoting a sense of community across a large and varied area. The finest in national public radio programs is made available, as well as local programs that are creatively and professionally produced, responding to the needs of the community. 

If one follows both the words and phrasing, as well as the grammer and punctuation, the content of the Mission Statement clearly states that the station's ". . .programming and operational philosophy is controlled by its membership." Note the use of "is" in lieu of "are". It states a singular item, i.e. "the . . . philosophy is controlled by its membership." Therefore, neither programming nor operations are controlled by the membership. Only the philosophy. "Philosophy", as you know, is the theory or attitude held by a person or organization that acts as a guiding principle for behavior. The membership can guide the programming and operational philosophy but the membership does not control prtogramming or operations.

David, 
Am I quoting information from a previous 
Mission Statement? If so, when was it amended?

Norman is incorrect. The mission statement does NOT state that "programming and operations is controlled by the membership."

Good Morning All….. 

This is interesting reading and worthy of review: 

KZYX Mission Statement 

KZYX&Z, 90.7, 91.5 and 88.1, is the community non-commercial radio station of Mendocino County, serving several counties in Northern California. Its programming and operational philosophy is controlled by its membership, which is open to all. Through its dedication to balanced, excellent programming, Mendocino County Public Broadcasting reflects the rich diversity of the county, while promoting a sense of community across a large and varied area. The finest in national public radio programs is made available, as well as local programs that are creatively and professionally produced, responding to the needs of the community. 

KZYX&Z pledges to be a responsible and responsive county-wide medium for news, information, music, performing arts, entertainment, and local features. KZYX&Z sees its programming as a complement to the work of Mendocino's commercial media. The station seeks to foster increased communication among all groups in the county and makes access available to all points of view. 

. . . from KZYX website 

Interesting to note that programming and operations is controlled by the membership.
