Randy Shaw was used on another posting to encourage voting for Concerned Listeners - Save KPFA candidates. Shaw certainly didn't recommend voting for one of them 2 years ago.

"The big question in Berkeley is who will replace the late Dona Spring on the City Council. The two leading candidates, Terry Doran and Jesse Arreguin, present a sharp contrast. Doran is a retired teacher who spent two terms on the School Board, and will be a virtual automatic vote for Mayor Tom Bates’ agenda. Rent Board Commissioner Arreguin would stake out a progressive independent path in the Spring tradition, and, if elected, would be the only Councilmember under fifty (he is 24)"

§Yes and read Robbie Osman's New 2010 Letter

It's unfortunate that those who have the access and those who want it, in the absence of strong balanced listener oversight on the board, will go so far to get and keep it. Stir in a few facts and a lot of seasoned-writer sleight-of-hand, and it's pretty hard to find reality. HOWEVER, Robbie Osman, who was there from before the beginning, does an excellent and readable job of covering the bases and answering those gnawing questions that these pieces by Randy Shaw and others seem to leave somewhere in the back of the logical if sleepy mind after exiting the smoke and mirrors museum of their work.
