Neyhard said something….

For those of you who haven’t a clue, The Wilkes-Barre Area School District voted 5-0 to end Service Electric Cable Televisions broadcast of sporting events at city schools, because broadcaster Rob Neyhard made statements about the rising crime in and around our city A YEAR AGO. 

Neyhard said “I wouldn’t want to send my kids to GAR, nor teach at GAR due to the crime in that area.”

It was true then, and true NOW!!! 

According the Citizens Voice the issue of halting SECTV’s broadcast of sporting events came after board member Dino Galella made the motion to authorize the football broadcasts. Denise Thomas responded with objections, noting comments that “chastised our kids on air” and spread “negativity.”

• OK now I must admit that I’m just a simple blogger from T-Town here but telling the truth about rising crime in our city, and stating concerns for the safety of the students/teachers who attend one of our city schools hardly seems like “chastised our kids on air” and spread “negativity.”, but then again this is Wilkes-Barre, and anything you say can and will be spun against you.

What amazes me is that a district know for corruption, that is about to award a multi-billion dollar, new school contract to one of the King’s favorite campaign donors is all of a sudden so worried about its public image that it would resurrect comments from a YEAR AGO, and inaccurately spin them so they could justify punishing the very kids they claim to be representing. 

Seriously, who is punished by this action?

• Rob Neyhard? NO!!! He did NOTHING wrong!
• Service Electric Cable Television? NOT EVEN A LITTLE BIT, it costs them more to air the game, as a public service than it’s worth I’ll bet!
• The Kids? YOU BET!!! Without media exposure, there is less chance of talent scouts seeing them in action!
• Their loved ones? FOR SURE!!! Grandma, Grandpa, who simply can’t get to the half-assed constructed stadium, and while I’m at it, why is that stadium so screwed up, you wonder? It’s because the board squandered the grants given to fund the TOTAL refit of the stadium, and lost part of the funding for not acting in a timely fashion.

But let’s not talk about real issues like corruption, nepotism, playing fast and loose with the taxpayers money, or the failing scores on the state standards, at a Wilkes-Barre Area School Board meeting, let’s instead dredge up nonsense from a YEAR AGO, and spin it so far from the truth that we can’t even remember who said what about whom. Yet we can certainly rest assured that someone MUST have said something, that was later spun into something that it was never intended to be, all in an effort to divert attention from the real issues.

Wake Up Wilkes Barre

DuhSoye Defamed?

As our thief of police’s career with the city is likely winding down (probably due to Federal Investigations) he is scrambling to find something, anything else, at least that’s what we’ve heard. First we heard he was going to work for the State but that fell through (likely because they can read), now it’s off to King’s College, but first we must intimidate those who would dare to mutter the TRUTH.

Mark Robbins of Forty Fort received a letter from the law firm of RJG (Rosenn Jenkins & Greenwald LLP) Attorneys At Law. Should you be unfamiliar with whom RJG is, then you really don’t pay attention, because in addition to being the LARGEST campaign contributor to King Lie-A-Ton, you pay them daily. RJG represents you (the people) every single day, and sometimes twice a day, as they (RJG) are the solicitors for more municipal boards and authorities in and around Wilkes-Barre City, then the law should ever allow, and now they’ve taken up the case of our poor, misunderstood, allegedly defamed, thief of police Gerard Dessoye, in his quest to silence anyone who would dare to claim is his less than an honorable, upstanding Chief of Police.

Well I’ve got news for you RJG, get ready to sue an entire city, because other than the few Kool-Aide drinkers, there ain’t a soul left in town who Believes, and not because they read this or Robbins blog, but because they live in this cesspool of crime, and corruption, that this thief of police, and his gas pilfering cousin, have created.

I would think long and hard before initiating any lawsuit, as you know the initial filing will result in Robbins landing in discovery, gaining immediate subpoena powers, and having the ability to depose anyone he feels can substantiate any of his claims, including but not limited to the entire staff, past and present of the WBPD, RJG, City Hall, DPW, Contractors, City Residents, LAG Victims, and the list goes on, and on, and on, well you get the picture. Not to mention the lawsuit will create a media circus, and anyone who hasn’t yet heard of just how inept Gerry is at his job will surely find out then, so your attempts at silencing Robbins will only result in YOU providing him with a much, much larger soap box.

Remember J.J.’s lawsuit against Radnor Township?
