Summary

Three lawsuits have been filed by journalists in four months against the parent company of KCTV 5 News In Kansas City and I can't ignore this anymore. It's right in the wheelhouse here at KKHI as I'll let you know just how ridiculous local tv news has become. As the House investigates the failures of security from January 6 it is learned that an FBI Field Officer from Kansas City was dressed as a Trump supporter and apparently leading demonstrators into the Capital. When the GOP holds its debate next week, Donald Trump will be giving a speech to the United Auto Workers in Detroit. You think the other candidates are getting played? Well, wait until you hear what a couple of the Biden people are saying off the record about this move. The Chiefs set an NFL record with their win on Sunday and it's a doozy. Patrick Mahomes tells Carrington Harrison of 610 Sports Radio he wants to punt in a game and the Royals still have a giant financing hole in their plan for a new ballpark.

0:00.0	Window World, the official Windows of the Kansas City Chiefs, presents Kevin Keatsman has issues online at Windowscansacinac City.com.
0:12.9	We keep starting the podcast with stories that I've tried to ignore.
0:17.0	Not necessarily ignore, just not include on the podcast, but then they they blossom, they grow, they keep going, and I can't ignore them anymore.
0:27.0	One is so close to me personally in my professional experience in my lifetime that I've actually, and I've got some really strong opinions about all this. So I've tried to avoid this
0:38.0	over the past few months, but I can't anymore. And it's kind of crazy what's going on at Channel
0:46.3	5 here in Kansas City, KCTV, which is based in Fairway. They're owned by Gray Media. That's the
0:52.2	parent company. And the third journalist in four months is now suing
0:57.3	gray media for discrimination. And I can't any longer just sit back and not comment on what's
1:04.1	going on here because this is obviously, you know, a lot of these places of the workers are in a union.
1:10.5	They're in AFRA or different unions.
1:13.6	And so they're at times like the auto workers, they'll combine together and say, okay, we're
1:17.4	going to go get the man here.
1:18.4	We're going to get our raise.
1:19.8	The auto workers won a 40% raise.
1:21.5	So they're on strike.
1:22.4	We see things like that.
1:23.9	In journalism, the latest tactic, and it's actually some of this has been going on for quite a while,
1:30.6	but the latest tactic at many of these particular outlets is multiple employees suing the company at
1:37.6	the same time for similar discrimination lawsuits.
1:42.8	In other words, they're painting the company is something that's unfair, unreal.
1:47.2	This is an impossible, untenable situation, and you created it, and it's not fair to me and my career.
