FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Around
noon on Sunday Mayor Breanna Lungo-Koehn sent out a memo on Facebook to
her following to send entries to Coach Jack Dempsey.
Mr. Dempsey has had a stranglehold on access television for quite some time. It isn't fair.
See the thread and ask Breanna why this isn't a "virtual class project" for the students who won't potentially profit from it
EXHIBIT A
Calling
all Medford residents! While we’re practicing physical distancing, I
encourage all of us to find fun new ways to stay connected and stay
involved. Thanks to all who have submitted positive posters and artwork
to my page so far (keep ‘em coming!). But now I offer you a new
challenge: Post a photo or a video (no longer than 25 seconds) of you
and your family/pets/roommates and let us know who you #StayHomeFor.
We’ll compile all photos and videos into one MEDFORD STRONG video and
share on social media. Send your entries by April 12. I’ll get us
started. Here’s a picture of two of my children and I and who we #StayHomeFor.
Entries should be forwarded to Coach Jack Dempsey at
jdsportsvideo@gmail.com Please include your name and the names of those
in the photo.

THERE
SHOULDN'T EVEN BE A HINT OF PROFITING FROM THE VIRUS AND WE URGE
BREANNA LUNGO-KOEHN TO START BEING TRANSPARENT AND TELL THE RESIDENTS
WHO MR. DEMPSEY IS, HOW MUCH MONEY HE MAKES FROM P/E/G ACCESS, IF
ANYTHING, AND IF HE CHARGES PARENTS AND STUDENTS FOR HIGHLIGHT REELS
FROM THE VERY FILMS HE'S TAPING PURPORTEDLY FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL ACCESS
CHANNEL
Mr.
Dempsey has a company, JD Sports Videos. Ostensibly, after getting
paid from P/E/G monies, Mr. Dempsey has an alleged for-profit business
where he can profit from the alleged P/E/G access videos. If so - in
my opinion - means that Mr. Dempsey should do "highlight reels" for free
since he's already been paid by the public access monies.
During
a serious crisis, is Mr. Dempsey now collecting e mail addresses where
he can pitch his JDSports videos to people, taking advantage, allegedly,
of the crisis?
This is not fair. Patrick
Gordon is paid $70,000.00 and does little other than cater to the city
council and the mayor. It is private access all over again,
and one of the biggest McGlynn cronies stands to profit like he's one of Donald J. Trump's children.
Breanna,
you MUST remove JDSports videos from this project and make Mr. Gordon
do the work. Jack Dempsey allegedly stands to further profit and that
is just so wrong!
Respectfully and outraged,
Joe Viglione
You know that public access TV you pay for and don't have?

its first trip to Lexington in what both sides agreed was a long time,
Medford High School’s softball team stunned the Minutemen in what was
also a homecoming of sorts for Mustangs’ coach Jack Dempsey and his
assistant and daughter Jackie.
The
Dempseys live in Lexington, and Jackie graduated from LHS in 2004,
