Erica Jones at Somerville Media Center and the many David Gauthier misdeeds at Wincam (the bastard is at Mass Access as well,) are the very reasons why the Supreme Court is Skeptical about Access TV.
The worms that infiltrated access and don't know a fxxxking thing about access are why Access TV is dying a horrible death.
It is ALL ABOUT THEM, not the public.
They are very bad people, selfish, arrogant, and they destroy the very infrastructure they are supposed to support!
Supreme Court Skeptical That Public Access TV Is the ‘Public Square’

A lawyer for two content providers banned by a New York City public-access television network for alleged threatening behavior received a cool reception from Supreme Court justices Feb. 25, when he contended the network was legally required to broadcast content his clients generate because the city government licensed the channel.
At issue is whether a public TV channel operator designated by a government is a “state actor,” meaning a person acting on behalf of a governmental authority. State actors are subject to regulation under the First Amendment, in some cases even if they have an indirect relationship with a government.
An appeals court previously ruled in favor of the content-makers, finding the channel on which they appeared was “the electronic version of the public square.”
The case is Manhattan Community Access Corp. v. Halleck. The nonprofit corporation runs the Manhattan Neighborhood Network (MNN), which says its “vision is to empower local voices and diverse views.”
It runs “two state-of-the-art media production and education facilities in Manhattan,” as well as public-access TV channels, which reach about 600,000 cable subscribers.
