    A REAL hero – only the media “heroes” which are usually people who have been captured or are victims of crime, Kimbery Munley is the civilian police officer who “took out” the shooter in Fort Hood. She ran right towards him and shot, even after being shot in the legs. She is an avid hunter and marksman – she killed her first deer at age 11.

    If President Obama was smart, he would hop on a plane and go visit her, and then encourage all young people to take gun safety classes and learn how to shoot guns accurately. Like that would ever happen…

    “In the Koran, you’re not supposed to have alliances with Jews or Christian or others, and if you are killed in the military fighting against Muslims, you will go to hell.”

    That’s the quote from the predictable New York Times article about the Islamic community reaction in Fort Hood, Texas. The Times, which recently made an obscene profit by selling off its classical music radio station and frequently leaks information damaging to US National Security, builds the case that it’s the military brass to blame for the shootings at Fort Hood.

    Cumulus loses $144 million for 3Q 2009…

    The reason was an additional $173 million writedown of the value of station licenses… cash flow was just about the same as their debt interest. Cash on hand went down because they repaid $49 million owed on their credit facility (they still owe about $600 million – the total of all company assets is only $338 million).. They took a $27 million “profit” on the future income tax benefit of the current period’s loss.

    Citadel posts 3Q loss – the company which includes the former ABC radio no longer has earnings events, but filed their 10Q. Revenue was hit hard by the death of Paul Harvey and Sean Hannity moving to Clear Channel.

    Sarah McBride of the Wall Street Journal mentioned in an unrelated article that Citadel is putting together a prepackaged bankruptcy – they have $150 million in debt that comes due at the end of the year.

    FDIC Friday – one bank and one S&L – both very small. I take this as not a sign that the problem is over, but the FDIC is stretched too thin (money and staff) to get any more banks closed.

    The govt needs to find a way to get the good banks to initiate takeovers without FDIC involvement or this problem will never get solved.

      3 more banks now closed as of 10pm est. 120 total for 2009 thus far.

      • Art Stone 11:27 pm on November 6, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

        Reading the list, the FDIC now seems to be shifting the problem into the future by entering into “loss sharing” arrangements. As I think I understand it, the idea is the bank “taking over” gets a loan portfolio (or other assets) and a promise from the FDIC that if in the future some of those loans “go bad”, the FDIC will make up most of the loss (typically 80%)… if the loans don’t fail, then the buying bank is that much ahead (the FDIC doesn’t share in a gain)… the “starting point” of determining the loss is based on a guess of the future default rates of the portfolio. This keeps the risk away from the buying bank, but doesn’t require the FDIC to sweeten the deal by giving the buying bank the cash today.

        Don’t solve today what you can put off until tomorrow…. the market has to come back eventually, right?

    10.2% unemployment – what more proof do you need that the “Bush recession” is over?

     

    • jmyrlefuller 1:36 pm on November 6, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      It’s not 10.8% (end sarcasm)… read an interesting article this morning:

      The last time unemployment was this high was during Reagan’s first term, but two factors make it a lot different: 1) before Reagan and Volcker implemented their plans, unemployment was already in the 7% range because of Carter’s stagflation policies. It was 4.9% when the mass layoffs started (conveniently, right about the time I graduated college). In other words, we lost twice as many jobs as a percentage of the population in this recession than we did in that one. 2) That was a V-shaped recession, which quickly rebounded… GDP started growing about 8%. Not only that, that growth came without any stimulus whatsoever. The deflationary policies made things less expensive, which spurred people to buy. Funny how the market works like that, and when we try to pump money into the system to create short-term gains, it short-circuits that. The result? Carteresque stagflation.

        Volker is in theory Obama’s advisor, but there was a story about a month ago that Volker hasn’t had any substantive meetings with the administration and he doesn’t know why he is even involved.

        Another thing which is different is the leading edge of the baby boomers is hitting retirement age, going from being producers to being consumers. As the retirees start living off their 401(k) and pensions, money starts to flow out of the capital markets instead of into it. The # of people working will start going down even though unemployment is not going up… unless President Obama decides that forcing retiress to keep working is a way to “save jobs”

    • phistar 12:02 am on November 7, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      I wonder if Volcker’s presence last year was little more than campaign window-dressing. Is he still Chair of the Economic Recovery Advisory Board? Perhaps he’s not agreeing with the economic practices of this administration. Times have changed since the early 80’s, when interest rates went through the roof, bringing about the end of stagflation. As a nation, our leaders must not think we can handle taking the pain over the immediate return in exchange for true recovery over the intermediate/long term. Perhaps they’re right. How things have changed in less than thirty years! Or maybe not? Perhaps if we just sit tight and wait for Obama’s “malaise speech,” then we’ll know that everything old is new again.

    Fort Hood shooting – thing in my mind…. this guy was a psychiatrist working at Walter Reed (until he got word he was being sent to Iraq) treating returning veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). These returning soldiers with adjustment problems are now supposed to talk about their issues with a muslim palestinian arab psychiatrist who opposed our involvement in the Middle East? What was the Army thinking?

     

    • WesternMA 12:36 pm on November 6, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

      Good point. Also, what was the mindset of the military to deploy a soldier with such obvious psychological problems. He was written up at Walter Reed and transferred to Fort Hood. His internet writings praising suicide bombers were reported to his superiors…why would they then deploy him?

      • Art Stone 1:07 pm on November 6, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

        1) He has a pulse and the military is running out of people to deploy
        2) He’s an officer
        3) Because the Army paid for his medical education, he couldn’t quit even if he repaid the cost (I spent last night at the home of a retired Air Force veteran who has some friends in the military who are muslim, and was agitated at the possibility of a reaction within the military)
        4) I’m guessing he is fluent in Arabic… while he was born and grew up in the United States, his parents were Palestinian Arabs from Jordon, and he went to the Mosque every day for prayers.

    Census worker murdered in Kentucky a while ago (and Huffington post types pointed fingers immediately at Glenn Beck)… AP is reporting that investigators now strongly believe it was a *suicide*. One of the odd details at the time was that he was “hung”, but he was found with his feet on the ground, which initially caused investigators to think he was killed elsewhere and then put in the tree to make it look like a hanging… but I guess that they have some other thoughts now

        I lived for a short while near Lenoir, NC… at the start of a road that wound up the mountain the “back way”. It was made clear to me to not go up that road because if you weren’t someone they knew, you could get in trouble (because you would be suspected of being an BATF agent looking for moonshiners)… this was in the 1970s.

    What does it say about a city when you look at the total market share of radio and what % of people listen to all news or news/talk? (summing up top level Arbitron PPM numbers)

    New York – 17.9%
    Los Angeles – 13.3%
    Chicago – 19.7%
    San Francisco – 21.9%
    Dallas / Ft Worth – 10.4%
    Houston – 9.2%
    Atlanta – 14.2%
    Philadelphia – 15.5%
    Washington, DC – 12.8% (NPR’s WAMU is another 5.9%)
    Boston – 19.8%

    Looking at that list, my guess is the single strongest correlation is income level, perhaps % of population with college degrees….

      • Art Stone 12:31 am on November 6, 2009 Permalink | Log in to Reply

        The list had a cutoff number…. it only showed those with 200+ tests

        You’re at 116 seconds for the average….

        That’s about the number below which I start getting curious if the person understands what testing really means. Of course, there are reasons the number might be lower – someone in the radio biz who already knows all of the voices of the major hosts and has a sense of the rhythm of the show clocks, or someone who only tests the most well known hosts and can quickly test a dozen Sean Hannity stations at the same time….

        But if people are “working” the lesser known and/or local hosts where it can take minutes to hear the host say their name, that pushes up the averages a lot.
        It’s a fine line to make sure people are actually testing, but not being so overbearing that I scare people off….

    “Performance Tax” heads in a new direction… with the certainty of passage unclear, the Dems in Congress are using a new strategy (one they probably should have started with) – strongly encouraging the NAB and the “Music Industry” to sit down and negotiate a resolution. If the NAB doesn’t show up or just says “No, we refuse to pay anything”, their position becomes a lot less defensible, which could then change some votes in Congress against the NAB position. The NAB doesn’t seem to understand that appealing to the public on the basis of financial considerations (”It will take money away from local stations”) not only is a gross misrepresentation but won’t work – just look at the $16.5 million Wee for Wii jury verdict to see how little sympathy the general public has for the financial viability of radio.

    Glenn Beck is the New Oprah, according to the NY Times, the financially troubled so-called newspaper that is read by many former and current KGB agents, despite its declining ad revenue and circulation and recent draconian staffing cuts. The greedy NY Times, which recently sold its classical music station for an obscene profit says that when Glenn Beck endorses a book, many rational liberals and moderates will refuse to buy the book.

      Remember, this guy is the odds-on favorite for governor of New York next year. New York State voters, on a whole, are incredibly stupid voters who are beholden to the teachers’ unions. Case in point: last night.

      And it’s not going to cost the teachers and retirees one dime. The taxpayers will be forced to cover the losses, just like we’re forced to cover every other expense this state conjures up.

      Is it any wonder I’m trying to get out of this state as fast as I can?

        As it turns out, Intel’s Stock INTC went up today, so I guess that the market feels Mr Cuomo isn’t going to get any traction trying to throw around his weight to make political points.

        I think a good place to start would be for New York State to outlaw using Windows and Intel based computers in the entire state, then they can add in outlawing the iPhone and all foods that contain sugar or glutens..

    NYSE Euronext launches NYSE Liffe – LIFFE is the London based futures exchange, whose pit trading was killed off by the Eurex electronic trading system in a week when it was launched about 10 years ago (I worked with a group of consultants that had worked on Eurex). Following that collapse, LIFFE was reborn as an electronic trading system called LIFFE/Connect.

    This is a direct challenge to both the Chicago Mercantile/CBOT exchanges in Chicago and the NYMEX in New York.

    Savage on Perot – while he got the details wrong, I was glad to hear Savage take on the Perot legacy tonight. Perot billed himself as the “government outsider” when he was nothing of the sort. His company EDS (Electronic Data Systems) made its pre-GM fortune from two main sources – it was widely used by credit unions to do their back office work – they had it down to a science of how to “take over” the processing so that by the time the current employees realized they were being replaced, it was too late to do anything. Their other main source of income was processing Medicaid insurance claims for the state of Texas. Perot was the ultimate government parasite, living off schmoozing with politicians to win business. He also managed to get the unions on his side (over NAFTA) despite his own company’s reputation of being brutally anti-union..

    WSJ Does Ayn Rand – the WSJ takes their turn with Ayn Rand, via an interview with the author. Both the interviewer and the author totally miss the point of why the “Glenn Beck Set” are interested in her writing. We aren’t afraid of an “economic collapse” – we are afraid of the Federal Government using the pretense of an economic collapse (that they caused) to destroy our personal freedom. Ayn Rand (and libertarians) don’t want to hang around the halls of power in Washington and schmooze, they want to disassemble the over-reaching central government and return the scope of government to the limits enumerated in the 9th and 10th amendments.

    It makes you wonder why Ms Heller would spend five years of her life to create a book about someone she so clearly doesn’t understand.

    UAW “Pattern Contracts” and Ford – one of the fundamental concepts forced on the big 3 was the same contract would apply to all 3 companies, so the companies could not try to split apart the UAW into factions based on the company. Each contract cycle, the first company that “settled” with the UAW then became the pattern that was forced onto the other two companies. Because GM was typically the most profitable, GM would compete to get the UAW to strike them, so GM (known locally as Generous Motors) would dole out generous concessions, that would then cobble Ford and Chrysler with high costs they couldn’t afford and be competitive..

    Now the shoe is on the other foot – the UAW made concessions to help “save” GM and Chrysler, and Ford is insisting that the UAW Ford workers agree to those same concessions so all 3 companies are working from the same contract. The UAW voted this weekend and said “No”. Keep in mind that GM’s largest stockholder now is the UAW retirement fund. The union being both labor and management/owner at GM is going to have some really odd consequences.

    (the Canadian UAW did approve the concessions, which could motivate Ford to move more of its operations to Canada if the US UAW holds firm)

    Watch Atlanta on Tuesday – the Washington Times focuses on the mayor race in Atlanta, where a white woman currently on the city council could be elected the first non-black mayor of Hotlanta since the 1970s. The city is majority black, with a large prosperous middle class. It could be a barometer of just how deep the backlash against President Obama may be. The latest polls show even blacks favor her. She may not get the 50% needed to avoid a runoff – in which case December 1st they’ll have a 2 person runoff.
