Statement: |
My name is Dennis McCoy. I am a 65 year old retiree who does not watch commercial television at home, but listens to music, the radio and reads. For more than four years I have been a financial supporter of KPFK. In 2008, 2009, and 2010 I contributed on a monthly basis.
My deepest concern is that KPFK, which I consider to be one of the few reliable sources of accurate news coverage, uncorrupted by corporate influence, is in jeopardy of failing due to a lack of listener support.
It is my wish to serve on the KPFK board in order to work with other board members and listeners to insure hat KPFK secures the foundation of financial solvency necessary to pursue its mission.
My educational background includes Burbank High School, Los Angeles Valley Jr. College, and UCLA. I served as a Medic in the United States Army and was in Vietnam from Sept. 1966 to March 1968. I am a father to two grown sons and a Grandfather to one exceptionally brilliant and very beautiful 19 month old daughter. Should you ever meet her, her nickname is “ladybug."
For roughly 35 years I worked in retail sales, serving in multiple positions including sales, store advertising, personal supervision, and store architectural design. During my career I served as department manager, assistant store manager and store manager from one to three stores.
It is my feeling I can bring to the table a wealth of life experiences and some understanding of what motivates people to make buying decisions.
