The idea of a drop-down menu, with clearly labeled divisions seems, at least
on the surface, to be easily understood by most people using the web in
2015.

Thanks, David,
I look forward to the website being more user friendly ie more direct/less
like a scavenger hunt.
What may be familiar to you may not be obvious to others in search of
information.
If the inner workings of the station were more easily accessible, there
might be fewer pleas for transparency.
Isn't he job of media s'posed to be Communication?

Minutes have been on the web for years. Go through at your leisure. On the
KZYX website one only has to explore "About", look under "Station Business",
and click on "Minutes". As with all of the other ongoing incorrect
suggestions that there is a lack of transparency, one can find 7 years of
minutes posted by the General Manager and the board.

In the service of winnowing out accuracy from hearsay, would it be possible
to find & cite minutes (or video or audio recordings) of past board
meetings?
Is the application period for GM now closed?

Thanks for the clarification. My source for the information was someone one
the hiring committee, but memories can be faulty.
I am not aware of any other "falsehoods" that I have circulated but am aware
that occasionally my sources may be inaccurate. If there are any other areas
where my sourced material differs from yours, I am always interested in
comparing them, so that myself and the community can get as close to a
realistic interpretation of the truth as possible. In this way we all make
better choices.
I would like to thank Norman DeValle for setting up this listserve allowing
the type of open and transparent communication necessary for this process,
and hope someday to hear his voice back on the air at KZYX.
