Even if you're only trying to throw up a smoke screen here, you'll have to be more subtle than this. Investment accounts are subject to 1099 reporting. Any brokerage account 1099 will show distribution of dividends, long and short term capital gains and any other taxable transaction, with the data being transmitted to the IRS electronically. I even have an account that I closed but which ended up with about $30 left sine some kind of dividend was in processing when I closed the account and I get an annual 1099 for a couple of cents of dividends and occasional capital gains of a dollar or two. I have to put that on my tax return, too. I can't see how anyone could hide income or capital gains from a brokerage account since the IRS gets all the data automatically on every such account. The IRS computers can instantly note a mis-match of income reported at the source and income declared on a return. Heck, even the interest on checking and savings accounts gets reported to the IRS. |

So I have considerable respect for the listener and spend most of my time finding out at the street level what they want from radio stations in their market.

Having lived and worked many decades ago in a nation where, at one time, domestic SW was the only "local" radio for a significant part of the population, I can still remember when SW might have fit a commercial station's business model.

I am not interested in programming something I like. I am interested in finding out what listeners like, and having our team of about 70 programmers use listener guidance to create radio that appeals to large groups of listeners. Talking to listeners is hardly embarrassing; talking as if you knew what you were saying when you don't is. |

So I have considerable respect for the listener and spend most of my time finding out at the street level what they want from radio stations in their market. MW and FM stations' markets are, today, the metropolitan area where they operate, not someplace far away... so for such cases, "listener" is synonymous with "local listener." Having lived and worked many decades ago in a nation where, at one time, domestic SW was the only "local" radio for a significant part of the population, I can still remember when SW might have fit a commercial station's business model. Today, in most places, it does not. Any disdain I feel is for those who think that yesterday's radio is relevant today. Ain't that the nation that tossed your lying ass out? When you have risked your life and property to defend democracy, let me know. Please, enlighten us once again with your tales! Yeah, even I want to hear about how you defend democracy by leaving the conflict. The heroes I know, who risked life and property to defend democracy took up arms and brought the fight to those who would challenge democracy. There is no risk in leaving the fight behind. And as I said some time ago, the only thing I've ever heard you renounce is your citizenship. |

For more than half a year, my colleague at Diario El Tiempo and I voiced opposition to the military junta in Ecuador by talking and writing about the promised return to democracy. He disappeared (or was disappeared) and I was given 24 hours to leave... the fellows in uniforms had rifles, so there was not a "road to appeal" available. The heroes I know, who risked life and property to defend democracy took up arms and brought the fight to those who would challenge democracy. And some took up themightiest sword, the pen. But in each case, they took the fight to the enemy. Leaving doesn't risk, nor does it defend. There is no risk in leaving the fight behind. I would get a good chuckle out of finding out how you think I could have remained, given I was escorted to the airport; the intent was to silence the radio stations by nationalization, not to silence me personally. Tell that to Diego Ortiz of El Tiempo. Or to his widow and children. And you're now in his class? Um....idontthinkso. I was not similarly treated only because the junta was concerned about disappearing a foreigner. |

So, regale us yet again with your tale of selling the radio stations which were nationalized. I did not ever sell any station in Ecuador. The government wished to nationalize the station group. In the 24 hours I had before being put on a plane (it was the era when there were not flights every day to the US out of Quito, which was then only a daylight airport) I had my attorney (Lic. Benjamín Cevallos assisted by Lic. Segundo Maiguashca) transfer most of the stations to an employee cooperative, headed by Ulpiano Orozco. Since the junta felt it was " a people's government" and was similar to that of Gral. Velasco in Perú, they could not take the stations away from "the workers" which was my intent... both to save their jobs and to keep the government from closing the stations. The shares of two frequencies were transferred to my daughter's name, and the whole deal made contingent on this last step, under the hope the government would leave the whole arrangement alone due to the adverse publicity messing with an employee cooperative would bring. Since I had a VP / General Manager position in what is now the US' 13th largest market within 2 weeks of leaving, I came out both alive and employed. The experience of building a dozen stations in just a few years, learning how to sell them and manage them, was of immense value... and given the economic conditions of Ecuador today, probably as positive as the whole thing was negative. |

How you would have stayed is not the question. You claim to have been a defender of democracy. The question is, as a defender, how you would risk life and property by leaving. Changing the subject is another charming debate tactic designed to get you out of clarifying a statement that makes no sense. Once again, making my point for me. |

Never paid a penny in additional charges, because I pay what I owe and pay it on time. You, on the other hand, seem to know all about frequent audits. |
