Dear Citizens:
Dear Citizens:
Fact:
Mayor McGlynn had a deceased Medford resident on his phony Cable
Advisory Board along with Bob Skerry, Richard Giovino, Richard Trotta.
Mr. Skerry was furious with McGlynn for not taking the Advisory board
seriously. How disrespectful to the family of Ray McDonald to see a
deceased member of their family allegedly used as a board member on an
ineffective entity. In fact, Richard Trotta resigned on the very day
the Sec of State's office demanded he respond to my Public Records
Request
Then
McGlynn offered the ridiculous "tribunal" of Fred Laskey, Allison
Goldsberry (a teacher being paid from the access monies, no conflict
there with her job on the line,) and the ridiculous priest who reviews
movies on the Catholic TV channel which McGlynn ignored. Mr. Laskey
assured me that we would have public access...so much water under the
bridge at the MWRA, so to speak...we are still waiting, Freddy
So now we have a real estate person, Jay Campbell, who:
1)Starts
a meeting off using first names "Judy," "Jack," "Krissy" - so much for
proper meeting minutes. l was the only resident who showed up last week
and I couldn't figure out which language Campbell was speaking
2)Gabby
Follet Sumney had to tell Campbell to call for a vote...too funny...if
it wasn't so pathetic with our cable TV franchise fees being wasted
...Campbell is so out of his depth it is an embarrassment, and Stephanie
loves it that way...just keep the citizens in the dark and show no
transparency
3)My
good, good friend Yvette Wilks who had me appear on her show in
Somerville seemed poised to remove the CORI check and 4 page nasty
Agreement city hall makes the people funding access sign, then she
seemed to switch gears, her allegiance to Stephanie's alleged
malfeasance with the access monies all too clear to me now.
so
there you have it people. Yvette shrugs her shoulders that I won't
sign a ridiculous form that Mark Rumley perpetrated on the citizens
Hey,
did you hear about the Russian journalist assassinated this week, shot
in the back while buying a loaf of bread for his family ...or getting
ready to leave the house to buy bread
That's
what they do to you in Medford if you dare speak up. They assassinate
your integrity, they physically assault your person with city clerk Ed
Finn or Matt Page Lieberman of TV 3 (now a member in Somerville) ...thug
like tactics to silence you.
I
informed Jay, Yvette and Gabby (hey, THEY are on a first name basis
during a meeting so you don't know which Jack, Judy or Krissy they are
talking about) that I wish to speak at tomorrow night's meeting.
Why let an adult in the room when the children are playing. Just don't let Somerville TV board members Joe Lynch sexually harass me with talk of wanting to have sex with Mayor Joe Curtatone - little kids are at the studio frequently, y'know, their parents paying big bucks for a Youth Media group with a woman who has a mouth like a construction worker teaching them (good one, Yvette!) or Fallon O'Brien - bored board member - have open alcohol next to a computer while I'm editing, and not just once, another board member of Somerville TV who should know better WITH LITTLE CHILDREN IN THE STUDIO...
welcome to Stephanie's fiasco
I've
watched two of the three Cable Advisory Board meetings and they aren't
the same meetings as other cities and towns have. Because this tribunal
is acting like a board of a 501c3 and not a proper advisory board.
Betcha they don't even KNOW the function of a cable advisory board in
the Commonwealth...
and that's the way Mayor Burke likes it ...clueless people on a dog and pony video show
Jay
Campbell wants to do a tv show. Oh wow, isntead of facilitating
programming for others he wants to use it for himself. So Medford. So
wrong. So very corrupt.
What's
his real estate license number? If he dares do a show on Real Estate
like the old TV3 would abuse the station, let's file multiple complaints
on the jerk.
Hey,
I would like to speak tomorrow night. I've only been involved in
public access since 1979...hey....what? Are you afraid of having an
adult in the room who knows what he is talking about?
Of course they are. It's not fair to citizens, is it?

Raymond McDonald obiturary
Raymond "Ray" McDonald - Obituary - Medford, MA / Malden, MA ...

Upon retirement, Ray remained very active and became President of the Mystic Valley Chapter of the AARP
for several years. He later was asked by Medford Mayor Michael McGlynn to serve as
Chairman of the Warner Community Cable Advisory Committee. Ray enjoyed an active social life and cherished ...
The seven members of the Cable TV Commission at that time were former School Committee member Robert E. Skerry, Richard Giovino, Michael Wyche, Michele Bordieri, Donald McCarthy, Raymond McDonald. and Richard Trotta who teaches audio/visual at the high school.
In August of 2006, before I wrote my initial report to City Hall, information on Merrimack's Cable Television Advisory Commission was sent to the City Solicitor of Medford. That group's mission was very clear - and missing in the city of Medford:
