[Kzyxtalk] Kzyxtalk Digest, Vol 40, Issue 15--Message 1

[Scott Peterson]

Janie,


I didn't make any accusations. I merely stated the obvious; that Dan Roberts broadcasts state sponsored Russian propaganda on KZYX. And in spite of Russia's recent meddling in our elections with propaganda, he continues to do so. Some people are deeply offended by that. I'm one of them.


Jim Heid made a good point with his link to the 2015 article about how benign Russian propaganda was thought to be two years ago. But things have changed since then.


I've listened to Jeff Blankfort and Maria Guardian before. I just can't do it anymore. When I tune KZYX in, all I hear are people who are indirectly holding the coat of the worst president in American history. Along with the man who controls him, Vladimir Putin. They're not doing that on purpose. They've been manipulated into doing it. I'm not saying they're bad people. And I'm not saying they can't do that with their own resources. But I don't think that U.S. taxpayer funded airwaves are the right place to do it. Especially now.


So from now on, I'll be taking down the names of all KZYX underwriters -- including the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I'll be contacting them directly and personally. I'll be withholding all support for them. And I'll be calling on everyone I know to do the same. That's democracy in action.


Sincerely,


Scott M. Peterson

Mendocino

>I find your accusations of longtime, faithful  and creative programmer Dan
Roberts--really off the wall.  Although you apparently have been taken in by
the "blaming Russian" hype, there are many of us serious folks who are not .
.some of them KZYX programmers also.  Do you ever listen to Takes On The
World by Jeff Blankfort--long time programmer?  You should tune in for a
show or two - -you might learn something.

 How about Maria Gulardian on TUC radio?   Who also creates her show on her
own dime, same as Dan Roberts and also asks for donations. . .?  These are
highly respected longtime programmers whose shows are heard throughout the
country.

Former programmer, Women's Voices--KZYX
