Message to a Candidate on Facebook from Joe V

 Hi Nat - 

 I put in the SOLE proposal to run the access television station when McGlynn issued his RFP. 

 Even though it is alleged that Paul Donato said I'm the best guy to run an access station, even though Michael Marks allegedly said at a Cable TV Commission meeting "Joe Vig was right," even though I've been doing public access television spanning forty years, even though we recorded an amazing 55 minute interview with harp legend James Montgomery 24 hours ago (7 pm - 8 pm, a day ago right now! last night at a terrific access TV station north of here) both Mayors do NOT want people participating on access television. 

 They create road blocks, dumb CORI checks to check up on candidates for elected office, and the former mayor, McGlynn, would often have "City Council Blackouts" where the tapes wouldn't run - the VHS tape deck at the Fire Department (YES, you heard that correct, a broken VHS machine so they had an excuse.) I could put a REAL access television station together in my sleep, and no one in this community should doubt that for a second. I have more experience than many in the United States of America having started in 1979. 

 They do NOT want you on television.
