With all the hoopla about Jeff Crank of Americans for Prosperity, standing up during the Citizen's Comments portion of the weekly Colorado Springs School District 11 Meeting of the Education of the Board, and suggesting that the Master Agreement contract negotiations be opened...
...and with all the to-do about D11's Channel 16, its technical, audio-visual expertise, and its live broadcast of Board meetings at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday nights (re-broadcast on Saturdays and Sundays)...
(-- I guess I should say here...that is, Comcast Channel 16 --)
...and since not everyone subscribes to Comcast, but A LOT of folks have general internet access...
...and since the District already uploads internet podcasts of the big show after that meeting's minutes have been accepted...
(big innovative idea drum-roll please:)
WHY NOT JUST SIMULCAST THE SHOW ON THE INTERNET.
Because then we would all already have seen and heard Mr. Crank for ourselves, rather than filtered through two weeks of spin, vitriol and hearsay.
And we'd have also seen a quite fetching Arachno-American woman address the Board regarding her thoughts on innovation.
But for some reason, we always have to wait until after the official meeting minutes are approved...and in this case, that means two weeks after the fact.
Why?...unless it's to give the District time and opportunity to edit scenes and airbrush obscenities from t-shirts.Hey, District:
I'M NOT THE ONLY OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISTRICT 11 WATCHER WITHOUT CABLE OUT HERE, JONES-ING FOR FIRST RATE, SPELLBINDING ENTERTAINMENT, YA KNOW.
So...maybe you can consider it.
