[Kzyxtalk] More from Bruce Anderson

[Tim Gregory]

Ah. Thanks, DG...

Not to put too much out at once, the issues for discussion are many and it helps to
keep them discreet from one another.

You and Norman expressed ‘anecdotal’ concerns—based on, or in spite of these we can
become members or enemies of the station. The non-voting bloc of listeners is
another important demographic. For another thread, perhaps.

There is also what I call the ‘physics’—the business, the staff, the infrastructure
as it exists. We may agree this is not hitting on all cylinders.

There are the matters of station ‘mission’ or ‘operational philosophy’. And more
concretely in practice, we address ‘policy’.

I also break out future or ‘strategic’ planning, because this the jealously guarded
BOD activity you might never see in action, no matter how politely or often you ask
to be personally involved.

Some on this list might still discuss these issues civilly. Programmers ourselves
are not of one mind about things. KZYX is an unwieldy social experiment in
progress... —-

And news has to include commentary on local events
and issues in the County.

bottom-feeder like Bruce Anderson.

I live a couple miles south of Fort Bragg and can't even pick up a clear signal from
the station as they ask for a $50 contribution.  Other stations come in just fine.
> What's wrong with this picture?  KZYX (see what I mean - they even got the
alphabet backwards) needs a complete overhaul from the ground up, starting with
moving the station from Philo to Fort Bragg or Ukiah, involving many more kids and
youngsters from the community, reducing the BOD from nine to seven (or five)
members, and a whole lot more.  Not sure any of this is possible.  Hence, my
sarcasm.

what would happen if someone were to ask him how much he pays his staff of mentally
ill, alcoholic and/or incarcerated reporters?
