AMI DISCOVERS BOYCOTT
9/15/2007 1:22:05 PM

 

Dear Friends of Radio:

As management to TGAMM FM RADIO, American Media International has discovered that some here inside ADLANDPRO contacted many of those on their friends list asking them to join them in a boycott of our radio station, as well as manipulating the precious gift of friendship to have them take no part in the forums we post for you and those offering viable and credible news events.

What ever the reasoning behind this boycott, it has not impacted our operation in the least.

Our numbers over the past 30 days have risen in audience participation, we are less than 25 members away from hitting the 1,000 mark on our friends list here at ALP, are active in three new business and social networks; new local and national business have engaged our operation as both client and sponsor and they will continue to do so.  

Prior to this reported boycott, TGAMM actively promoted many of those here at ALP and their business ventures. More times than not, this was done gratis and still continues to this day , with no profits to our business.

We have also given away more than $125,000 over the past 30 days in prizes that include advertising and promotions. Those who have won those contests have even had their ads grouped as a new stand alone web page; one created just for them and with the link to that web page sent to our entire subscribers list ( now 4 million strong ). This alone is worth over $5,000.

While we understand that we cannot be all things to all people, report news that only serves a minority, we must as broadcasters and news reporters, serve the interests of the masses, not one particular group or business. That alone would be unethical and non-productive.

To that end, we will continue our on line facility as an entertainment / news out-let and continue to report news that is both credible and verifiable, protects the interests of the entire Internet community and all business - on line and off, while offering our listeners the very best in all request radio.

Should you be part of this or any other " boycott, " know that we are still here to assist you and your business. We hold no grudge, have no hidden agenda, and make no apology for being who we are as professional men and women dedicated to the continued success of those we serve.

We look forward to hearing from you and in being a part of your success.

Hello Marilyn

  I am very sorry to hear about this boycot. If there is anything that this world needs right now it is access to honest, investigative reporting of the news and current events. It is the main stream media that is at least partly responsible for leading us into the world wide mess that we are in today.

   I have been a member of TGAMM for only a short while and regretably, I have not been as active as I would like to be. However, in light of these new developements, I hope to become much more active and help you get the News Out. For what it is worth, I fully endorse your program and I look forward to your continued success.

Sincerely, Bill Vanderbilt

Hi Marilyn,
  Shirley and I are very busy this weekend and have very little time to post to forums, however I felt that I must respond to this one.  First, I don't like it when anyone tells me to Boycott anything.  Everyone has the right to make their own decisions based on their own findings.  If I should find a local store that is operated by people from Iraq, and those owners treat me well, should I Boycott that store because one of my friends does not like Iraqis?  I don't think so.  TGAMM, Nan, yourself and others in the organization have always treated me and others very well, and I am not going to Boycott you because another member says to.  This is rediculous and if anyone does it, they are just missing out on the best music and news resource that they can find anywhere.  Joe played Shirley's song "Time" for at last a week and never asked a penny.  I have said it before and I'll say it again.  The Truth Hurts.  I believe that I am quite old enough to make my own decisions as to what I want or don't want.  Long Live TGAMM Radio!!!  People wonder why I don't respond to forums as I used to.  This is exactly why.  Some of our friends want us to drop everything and do what they want us to do, because they do not like a certain agenda or person or whatever.  I have the right to respond to who I want to and why I want to.
  Shirley and I made it through the first day of judging at the Miss Teen Indianapolis Pageant and we survived.  We were in seperate rooms juding different age groups.  Not everyone in our groups agreed with all of our decisions but they were the decisions that we both made according to our own judgments.  People need to start learning how to think for themselves rather than having someone else think for them.

God Bless You

Mike

(P.S.  When the pageant is over if any radio station would like to do a radio interview with Shirley, I'm sure she would not mind.)
