Lisa Loving friends KATU "hacker", Nassar Befuddled by Funding

Lisa "Hacker" Loving reaches out for support in the media community after recent embarrassing political missteps:

Lisa Loving
 near Portland ·
  • Looook, over on Twitter I'm friends with a "hacker journalist" from KATU--our exploration of the term "hacker" is very interesting isn't it? Is someone calling the police yet or what?
    Hatmaker, Kelly
    @_kFh_ follows you
    Highly functional ∴ Hacker journalist ∴ Data mining #4Fun & #Profit$ ∴ 武者修行 ∴ Day Job: Exec. Producer, @SpecialProKATU ∴ Paid to be curious.


Somehow we doubt she told the real  KATU media professional about this Facebook post:
Does anybody know how to hack into a Blogspot blog to find out who is doing it? I have come across a particularly cruel blog that is trashing people at KBOO and I would like to know who's doing it. Lemme know, thank you.
Or the outing of a Party Member[something real journalists don't do]:
Hi everybody!!! Now someone named Richard Smith has sent a screenie of my post about hacking into the anonymous bully blog to all the media in Portland, and a link to an Indymedia page and the Yellow Type blog. They are calling me out for trying to hire a child to hack a website. Awesome. Have a nice day. Thank you.
Try this for fun: Google Lisa Loving Hacker.

One of Comrade Loving's friends should explain to her what SEO is, so she can come up with a better spin strategy.[Hint: take responsibility, publicly apologize].

But who are we to slow down a pseudo-Streisand  Effect?

" Is someone calling the police yet or what?"

Hey, lady, you're the one threatening to file a LOLsuit.  Called your lawyer yet or what?



In other news, Comrade Nassar admits he's confused by funding:

  • I guess I'm not understanding KBOO's Fund Raising lately.

    1) Our Treasurer tells us we're under water, in deficit spending.
    2) We cancel the Winter Pledge Drive.
    3) Now it looks like the Summer Drive will only be ONE DAY LONG.

    What, are we trying to Starve the Beast until we can Drown it in a Bathtub???
    • 2 people like this.
    • Cathleen Cook-Oas Sounds fishy to me. With programing changes as you have described from local to syndicated, I would wonder if there is something in the wind.
      via mobile · 1
    • Steve Nassar Yes, There is a Foul Stench in the Wind...

    • Kate Welch Fishy is a fine description, yes, Fishy!

    • Jade Pekkala yes indeed, the board and the navigator are doing their best to stifle KBOO and what it offers to the community..





What, are we trying to Starve the Beast until we can Drown it in a Bathtub???
Oh!  Sounds like a "right-wing" conspiracy!  It's okay Comrade Nassar!  We understand!  Math IS hard!



This blog post might help you, but, loyal cadre that you are, we doubt it:

Traitor Hadrian sells out Board to FCC, calls members "Unstable"!

From forwarded email leak!  We get them just like Glorious Leader! 

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Hadrian Micciche <hmicciche@gmail.com>
Date: Fri, Jun 28, 2013 at 10:42 AM
Subject: Board turnover: Implications for license renewal and a possible solution to Board instability.
To: Sue Bartlett <sueb.kboo@gmail.com>, Hadrian Micciche <hmicciche@gmail.com>, Jeff Kipilman <jbkip@comcast.net>, Lisa Loving <lloving2002@yahoo.com>, Lyn Moelich <boardbliss@gmail.com>, Mark Sherman <kboo_board@q.com>, Matthew Bristow <myst567@gmail.com>, MichaelP <papadop@peak.org>, Paula Small <kboopaula@gmail.com>, Rabia Yeaman <kbooboardrabia@gmail.com>, "S. W. Conser" <conchdotcom@gmail.com>, Timothy Welp <timothyjgwelp@gmail.com>


1. Sending a FCC document related to Board turn-over and a petition to deny one of our broadcasting licences based on that turn-over.

Document name: DA-11-1605A1

The basis of the petition to deny: a claim that there was a greater than 50 percent change in KBOO's governing board which is generally considered a "major change" prohibited by Section 73.3573 of the Commission's Rules.

2. Sending a KBOO document with the Board Member election and appointment history. Three new Board members elected in September: Jeff Kipilman, John Mackey, Damon Isiah Turner. Three new Board members appointed in June. That is a 50% change in KBOO's governing board. Our current license renewal can be challenged on these grounds.

Document name: board appts 2013.pdf
From: KBOO web site.

The solution to this long history of instability on the Board? Do an active recruitment from outside of the KBOO community of stable, skilled and committed people who can represent segments of the unserved and underserved communities we seek to serve. It will be a hard sell given our current situation, but it must be attempted. The benefits of such a Board are many. The problems resulting from the status quo could be fatal.

This is the basis of my motion to the Board to request the Nomination Committee to do all that is required of it by the by-laws. Actually, we need to do all that, and more.  I can provide many resources needed for Board recruitment. It involves more than recording a spot, going to KBOO special events and putting up a notice on our web page.
And then he leaked the super sekrit board appointments that should be on the impossible to navigate KBOO website currently being maintained by chimpanzees:

Traitor Hadrian doesn't understand the high turnover is to drive out traitors to the Inner Party after their treachery is discovered via calls to act like a responsible non-profit or something.  (Nothing will be said of the times an Inner Party member is forcibly removed after being caught acting on Inner Party orders.  NOTHING. And almost nothing will be said of individual board member's instability.)

Anyway, who cares what the FCC thinks?  KBOO is a MEMBER run non-profit, non-corporation!  It's the MEMBERSHIP that decides which laws KBOO is going to follow, if any!   Broadcasting licences are a form of Top Down Corporate State controlled control!

Down with the FCC!  Down with broadcasting licences!

Look for our new 26,500-btu  smoke signal repeater station in the west hills at [puff] [puff][ *pause* [steam] FM.  (KBOO now accepts donations in firewood!)

LEAK: Proof Financial Crisis Manufactured with Help of IRS, CPB and FEDS!!!

The following prove the vast conspiracy to manufacturer a financial crisis at KBOO include the highest institutions of the US government, including the IRS!  FOIL HAT TIME!!!!

The Big Lie is that there is no financial crisis other than the one created by absorbing the Winter Drive into two other drives.
Here is documentation of the deficits we incurred from 2007 to 2010. A request to the KBOO Finance Director can get the same documentation of the size of the deficit in 2011 and 2012. The 2013 budget was planned to be a deficit budget as well and we can be fairly sure that we will end up with a deficit at the end of our fiscal year. How much longer can this go on? Not much.
Members who resist change say KBOO gets by just fine with just member contributions. They think another fund drive will make us solvent, ignoring a history of deficit spending each year, going back to at least 2007.


How is KBOO surviving with insufficient funding from members? By drawing down its reserves which date back to the days of federal funding. The reserves will not be replenished, at least not by future federal funds. KBOO lacks the number of listeners it needs to qualify. 


Here are the 990 Forms KBOO submits to the IRS, and which the charity watchdog site Guidestar make available on their website.

Documentation of deficit spending. 2007-2010.
Reports attached and source link provided to verify authenticity.

The 2011 and 2012 990's available at KBOO on request. Send an email, and they are obliged to provide the document in a timely manner.  

Background
IRS Form 990.
What is the form 990?

KBOO's reports should be on its web site but its hard to navigate. Guidestar is a reliable source for non-profit organization's 990s

KBOO's 990's found on Guidestar (as received from the IRS).
2010 and prior year. 
Attached document name: 2011-237232987-0876a476-9
See line 19 for statement of deficit.

2009 and prior year.
Attached document name: 2010-237232987-07770147-9
See line 19 for statement of deficit.

2008 and prior year
Attached document name: 2009-237232987-065b0359-Z
See line 18 for statement of deficit.

2007 and 2006 available with premium account on Guidestar. 

Here is some information from the time KBOO was kicked off the federal gravy train.

"The price of running KBOO the way it has been run for 30 years is its federal funding. Since last fall, CPB has put KBOO and five other stations "on probation," and KBOO lost approximately half of its expected $68,000 in grants. KBOO has appealed that decision, but in the meantime is planning schedules changes so that it will meet the new minimum audience levels set by CPB.
The risk has been clear since 1996, when participants in CPB's grant review released a list of about 80 stations whose CSGs would be endangered--the so-called "Dis List." KBOO was on that list.  

<snip>
Chris Merrick, the program director and sometime g.m.--a tall man with a long, blond ponytail--reviews the situation: The station was expecting $68,000 in CPB grants for fiscal 1998. "Our troubles began around August 1997 when we talked to CPB and found out that this was not the case."
Because KBOO met neither the minimum audience standard nor the minimum fundraising standard (story, page 1), it will receive $33,643 from CPB this fiscal year--about half of what it expected. With the loss, KBOO's revenues dropped 10 percent.
<snip>

Merrick confirms that the federal money has been used for salaries, Pacifica programs, satellite feeds and the Associated Press service. "We've looked at the AP wire. If we can't come up with a news grant, we might have to cut it, which will really devastate our newscasts."




KBOO continues to pay for staff salaries out of the reserves built up during the days of federal funding. Meanwhile, listenership has fallen to even lower levels, while staffing levels, largely, have not.
The reserves are nearly depleted.
There is no conspiracy to destroy KBOO -- other than the conspiracy to deny the facts of our financial condition, easily verified by legal documents KBOO files with the IRS.


That proves it!  The IRS is the Enemy of the people!!!  More so than usual, that is...
So is the FED!!!!

"The price of running KBOO the way it has been run for 30 years is its federal funding."

No wonder our Foil Hat Cadre has been so committed to Ending The FED!
 Besides, who needs the Feds?  KBOO is community funded radio!   As the diminishing community funds KBOO, loyal cadre will simply INCREASE their donations to compensate!     Many members of the community are ready to contribute! We can get a loan from that nice Russian man we met last week representing a bank in Cyprus!   We're sure he was only joking about the cement shoe default clause!  What could possibility go wrong with Our Glorious Leader at the helm?




Full FUBAR ahead!!!!

Comrade Yaney makes obvious observation about Traitor Hadrian

More tips from tripping Comrades!

Comrade Yaney makes shrewed obsevation about savekboofromsavekboo:

https://www.facebook.com/sweetheartofthevalley/posts/10152282965534119


  • Interesting, the savekboofromsavekboo blog has comments from Hadrian, but when you click on the Hadrian blog link, it says it's private. Wonder what that means? And it's yellow rip of the savekboo site. KBOOsters what do you think?

    • Steve Nassar Fuck them assholes.

    • Steve Nassar They selectively quote me over there. For instance, they quoted me up to, but NOT including this, from June 20th:

      Here's my prediction... If we allow Hartman to replace 15 hours of Locally Produced Programing, soon thereafter, our 8:00 AM Local Talk       Radio Shows, all of 'em, will be declared "Redundant" and replaced. So, we're *really* talkin' 'bout 20 hours, not 15 hours, of Local Programing getting trashed. Sneaky, eh wot?

      Replaced With What, one might ask? Why, with more Syndicated Clear Channel Claptrap, and each iteration will be milder than the last. The First Step in taming Little Beirut is to tame the only truly Progressive Community Radio Station Little Beirut has to offer. Ho Hum.

      Once we've replaced all or most of our Locally Produced Content with stuff that is either Downloaded or Automated, we'll *Finally* be able to fire all them pesky Staff Persons that keep getting in the way of "Progress." Progressive, yes?
       · 2
    • Steve Nassar Apparently, tho, KBOO Management DOES pay attention to it, however... After they quoted me complaining about having to play our Station Manager tell Portland there is no Progressive Talk Radio in Portland as intro to KBOO's Talk Radio Shows, that shit stopped this week.

      I had to insult all 4 of my talk radio hosts last week in that manner. Not this week.

      Thanks, Lynn, for letting me STOP being a KBOO Asshole, Live, On the Air, every day!!!
       · Edited · 1



 Now, now, Comrade Yaney, don't try to steal Comrade Nassar's thunder.  He already proved Traitor Rabia is responsible for Glorious Leader's blog design and the parody of the same.  Traitor Rabia gets around!

This is more interesting:  traitor Hadrian's Blogger profile IS private!  WHAT IS HE HIDING?

Another observation:  the only person to click on the exit links to Hadrian's profile during the time before Yaney's comment was someone using the same ISP Rebecca Nay used for leaving comments two weeks ago.

[logs available on request]

Clearly Comrade Yaney has HACKED Rebecca Nay's  ISP!!!!

Don't worry cadre, it's probably all for a very good reason...any action for the Cause is a Good Reason.

At a guess we think Hadrian's blogger profile being private means Hadrian has set his profile to being private.   But reality must be murkier than that because a true inner party loyalist has NOTHING to hide.  

On that note, see latest Party memo:

We'll be installing streaming cameras inside all party member bathrooms at the end of the month.    Objections WILL be noted.

-MT

UPDATE:  Comrade Steve Nassar HE MAD!



  • Vernon Huffman I'd like to see everybody at KBOO acknowledge that they can disagree without accusing each other of attempting to destroy community radio. On the Hartmann question, I see a simple compromise. Instead of replacing local programming, put Thom on in place of the second airing of Democracy Now! This will draw his loyal listeners to hear other KBOO programming and save local programming. Air time is too precious to air the same exact show twice each weekday.

  • Steve Nassar That's not what the Station Manager proposed. She proposed 3 hours per day, 5 days per week. That won't fit in a one hour DN! time slot.

    AND... Part of her proposal was the statement that Portland just doesn't have access to Progressive Talk Radio     since the demise of Hartman.. That was an outright lie, and insulting to 5 Volunteer Talk Radio Hosts.

    I agree that everyone at KBOO should be able to identify themselves and have an Open Discourse, and not resort to Fighting Nasty from behind Anonymous Yellow Press Web Sites, like some Asshats that want to destroy KBOO do.

    There. I tacked that last phrase on the end just for YOU, Vernon. Bwaaahahahahahahah!!!!
  • Vernon Huffman It's Conflict Resolution 101. First, find common ground. On what key principles do you agree? Look for the element of truth in the other's position and acknowledge it to their face. After the other person knows you have heard, succinctly state your position, tying it to common interests. Negotiate with a future focus, free of blame and accusations, in an effort to allow everyone to win. These methods work! Try them.
    · 1
  • Steve Nassar It's hard to find common ground with someone that won't identify themselves. In fact, I would add that it's not worth the trouble trying.
     · Edited
  • Vernon Huffman Presumably, Steve, anyone who takes time to write about the situation cares about KBOO. That's a big chunk of common ground. Seems like the Mission Statement might be a place to find common values. It's terribly hard to have a conversation with somebody who's decided you're not worth listening to. BTW, how's Sky?

That crazy dreamer Vernon!   He's in a complicated relationship with Yaney!
 In a complicated relationship with Yaney Lee Ann MacIver
He's got a complicated relationship with everyone!  For instance he's one of Lisa "Hacker" Loving's over 1,000 friends who did not call her out for soliciting a felony or outing a party member!

 Nothing says solidarity like co-dependency!!!!

For more on Vernon's thoughts go to comments here.

For historical record, Traitor Kraus has already proposed a "reasonable" Hartman schedule.   Beware, Vernon, lest you become a traitor too!!

UPDATE:  And more...

  • Steve Nassar Sky is doing wonderful. THanks for asking!

    Anyone that doesn't have the Guts and Conviction to stand behind their words is NOT worth listening to. Sorry, but that's just me. Your mileage may vary.

  • Steve Nassar I don't post at the savekboofromsavekboo Yellow Blog, and only read it when someone interesting, like Yaney or Lisa send me there. From the few times I've read it, I can't recall ever seeing anything positive posted there. It appears that the sole purpose of that site is to insult and inflame an already volatile situation. That the owner of the Blog remains anonymous speaks Legions of his or her intentions and honesty.

    So, fuck 'em. They're just another Irrelevant Troll Trap.
     
Yaney and Lisa send Comrade Nassar to read an "Irrelevant Troll Trap"?  The things you learn on Facebook!
