NO MORE FRAIZER GLENN MILLER RADIO ADS

The Missouri Broadcasters Association issued a statement this evening on the on-going battle with hate-monger and supposed "write-in" U.S. Senate candidate Fraizer Glenn Miller. Miller was buying radio ads on Missouri radio stations. He was claiming that since he was a U.S. Senate candidate that the radio stations had to sell him ad time.

MBA and Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster filed a request for a declaratory ruling from the FCC on the matter.

"On Friday, June 18, 2010, the Missouri Broadcasters Association was advised by telephone that the FCC’s response to its petition would be in the form of informal, oral advice. The advice was received from the Media Bureau’s Policy Division staff. The advice was that, on the facts and pleading submitted by all parties, including Mr. Miller, it would not be unreasonable for Missouri broadcasting stations to determine that Miller is not a bona fide write-in candidate and therefore, Missouri broadcasters may deny him access to broadcast their stations.

This advice is an affirmation of the position taken by the MBA, Attorney General Koster and Zimmer Broadcasting and the FCC, prior to the filing of our petition. It confirms that a broadcaster who decides that Miller has not established himself to be a bona fide write-in candidate would not be acting unreasonably. Therefore, in our view, a Missouri broadcaster would not be held liable for having denied access retroactively.

The MBA continues to believe that Mr. Miller’s demands for mandatory access were an abuse of the privilege contained in the Communications Act for bona fide candidates. The Communications Act creates a special mandatory-access rule only for federal candidates, carefully limited to party nominees and those who are “bona fide,” or active and credible in the circumstances of the particular race. This result validates the MBA’s position in its petition and reply comments that Miller has not established himself to be a bona fide candidate. Miller is merely attempting to use broadcasters as a megaphone for his message, and broadcasters are not required to allow themselves to be used as a purveyor of personal views merely upon the claim of candidacy for federal office."

CAN I GET AN AMEN AND A HALLELUJAH, BROTHERS AND SISTER!!!

ENTERCOM, MBA & KOSTER AGAINST RACIST RADIO ADS

Why is Kansas City radio better than Springfield radio? Because they have the guts to stand up to racist nutcase Frazier Glen Miller. The Radio Business Report has two stories about the fight against local hate-group leader's radio commercials for his "write-in campaign" for U.S Senate. The Missouri Broadcaster Association has asked for assistance from Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster. They say the must-carry rule may not apply to Miller's offensive ads since he is a "write-in candidate."

Also in the Radio Business Report, the Entercom radio cluster, which Miller bought air time on, is going to give his money to the Olathe Chapter of the NAACP and the Jewish Community Relation Board.

Recently, these same ads ran on a Springfield cluster. Only one TV station mentioned it as part of their news. WHERE IS SPRINGFIELD'S OUTRAGE?

Nowhere. Springfield has a bad tendency to condone people like Frazier Glen Miller. We even have local lawmakers who will take up for these characters when law enforcement tries to warn people about them.

Springfieldians and Ozarkers get upset when they hear rap/hip-hop, heavy metal or (yes, even in 2010) psychedelic music on local radio, but if a Klansman's hate filled commercials are fine. After all, he has the thing that matters to Springfieldians & Ozarkers more than anything - MONEY! Greed and racism are considered "good values" in the Ozarks. Luckily, the rest of the state doesn't see it that way.

Of course, opinions like this are why I'm considered the Super-Villain of the Ozarks!!! Mwu-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

PARENTS TELEVISION COUNCIL CAN "IF YOU SEEK AMY" THEMSELVES

I knew this would happen. I told you that some radio folks were already worried about the new Britney Spears song "If You Seek Amy." I said that radio stations needed to add the song to their playlist to celebrate the end of Bush-era FCC President (and Parents Television Council lapdog) Kevin Martin's term.

Billboard is reporting that the Parents Television Council, a group of right-wing activist led by Brent Bozell who urge people to send spam through their website to the FCC, is urging radio stations not play the song. I believe a wise man once said it best, "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!" HOW DARE THEY DISRESPECT BRITNEY SPEARS? HOW DARE THEY GO AGAINST THE WISHES OF DESDINOVA - THE SUPER VILLAIN OF THE OZARKS?

I'm begging radio station to add this song to their playlist. Even if you are not CHR or Hot AC, I feel this is something that Alternative, Classic Rock and even some country stations could get behind. Also, if you are a follower of mine and work at a talk station YOU CAN PARTICIPATE. The psycho freaks who listen to talk radio get all bent out of shape when the automation plays a commercial during Rush Limbaugh or one of the other talk radio atrocities, so I propose finding a way to play "If You Seek Amy" over Rush, Savage, Boortz, Dr. Laura so their little fans can't hear what garbage they are spewing out.

This would also be good if you are one of the people Clear Channel "let go," but for some reason you are still in the building. Mwu-HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Fellow radio folk, what I'm telling you is important. We need to start a revolution and now is the perfect time. We need to break from the mistakes of the fast eight year that plunged radio into this mess. I want you to play Britney's "If You Seek Amy" so we can show the PTC (BTW-Why are they causing trouble for radio when they are called the Parents Television Council?) that we have had enough of their stupidity. Do it for me, Jefferson Airplane and the Beatles.

This post will not make me popular, but it is post like this that make me the SUPER VILLAIN OF THE OZARKS! Mwu-HAHAHAHAHA!
