Somerville Community Access Television, doing business as Somerville Media Center, has been ordered by Mayor Katjana Ballantyne to cease operations in its facility at 90 Union Square and vacate the building by August 31, 2023.

 

This disaster of a board of directors (full disclosure: I was on the board of the radio station here and eventually shut that quasi-board down. )

 

I'm the one who actually kept the radio board alive while 2 station managers wanted it gone.

 

When the radio board couldn't get its act together (I was originally videotaping Facebook Live and even taking the meeting minutes till Dan Burke took over) not realizing I'm the guy who kept it alive, I signed off on ending the debacle as well. 

 

What a joke.

 

 Somerville Media Center just as inept and bungling. 

 

They knew when Curtatone was in office they couldn't stay at the firehouse forever, but they ignored the writing on the wall and disrupted the free speech for all the members., 

 

Another clown show. 

 

Heather Mack is a joke with a history of bad manners at her previous station. 

 

File under; I know too much

SMC will leave its present location at the city’s request and is negotiating a commercial lease for another location in Somerville to rebuild SMC’s television studios, its internet radio station Boston Free Radio, and youth and adult education spaces as soon as possible. In the meantime, we are working with our partners to find temporary locations for our youth program, our producers, our gallery, and all the art and media our members produce. https://www.thesomervilletimes.com/archives/126450
