SOME NEW QUOTES ON OUR VOLUNTEER WORK

______________________________________________________________________________The front page of the Medford Mercury on Monday, February 28, 2011 noted that the founder of
COMMUNITY MEDIA MEDFORD spoke to the Medford City Council:
"Medford resident Joseph Viglione addressed the legislative body( Tuesday, February 22, 2011) on the situation, as he sees it, at Medford's public television station. He inquired: "where is the outreach, diversity and access?" He also read a letter from another Medford citizen addressed to the Mayor questioning the Mayor's leadership in regards to TV3. The paper was received by the council and placed on file.
PLEASE NOTE:
Available EVERYWHERE except the City of Medford.
Please Note: Currently in the city of Medford, Massachusetts, an individual who is the webmaster for a law office (whose owner is the cousin of the Mayor) is currently stealing intellectual property. We are building a new community media station and not allowing our programs to be aired on Channel 3 in Medford until the appropriate action is taken by the issuing authority, Mayor Michael J. McGlynn. To all the residents and Comcast subscribers, we apologize. People understand the dilemma and are horrified that civil rights are fractured in Medford by members of the old station with a few years remaining on its contract with the City. After Judge Jackson-Thompson's report the Mayor has an obligation to hand the station over to a new, objective and fair entity. Until that time, this show will not air in Medford.
