To all personnel at KLLG Willits including Lanny Cotler and whoever is or is not in charge:
KMEC (Ukiah) has just gone full-time with Memo of the Air, Marco McClean's Friday night show.
I hope KLLG will do the same. It would be a move toward local free speech and solidarity.
It is ridiculous to say that Marco is not local enough. I mean, he works in Ft. Bragg and lives in Cotati!
That attitude is really too local; it is parochial; it is EXCLUDING THE LOCAL.
Memo of the Air should be supported by local radio.
Thank you for taking the time to think about this,
And maybe someone will take the time to respond to me, even if, nowadays I spend most of my time in the jungles of Berkeley.
I still have a few friends in the county.
