Radio Advert....
Thanks for the heads up on this. I sent an E-mail....
ps. The text of the note follows:
"Hello,.... My name is Darian Calhoun. With respect, I'm asking that the advert run on your radio station (KFBK) by the California Job Alliance be removed from your on-air advert listings for the following reasons:
It presents an inaccurate picture of the cause of Delta fish population declines. The major contributor is excessive pumping as pointed out by federal court judge, Oliver Wanger in his decision last year.
It gives no or incomplete discussion about risks of the massive, unfunded, long term cost to the state for the project. While I support investment in infrastructure as a means to create jobs, going further into debt at this point in time just complicates the states already low credit rating and lack of current revenues to service that increased debt.
Thank you for your consideration,
Darian Calhoun"
Interesting advert. It really doesn't say anything untruthful but paints an overly optimistic picture of the project, ties the issues to the jobless situation and omits any references to problem areas. Good example of spin....
