Roland Hansen's Blog Entry:
"On August 8, 2007, I made a blog entry here on Roland Hansen Commentary that I had entitled Change Lucas County, Ohio Government!
The following week, on August 14, that entry was featured in the weekly edition of Carnival of Ohio Politics: Carnival Number 78, and was mentioned on August 15 over on Thurber’s Thoughts.
Then, on August 16, WSPD radio talk show personality Fred LeFebvre called my home. I was out at the time, but he did leave a message in which he said amongst other things “I’d be interested in talking to you about it” and he asked me to call him back. My answering machine has a time stamp, consequently I not only still have the message which I saved, but I also have a record of the time the message was left; it was 11:56 a.m.
I returned Fred LeFebvre’s at approximately 2:30 p.m. He did not answer; however, I did get his voice mail. I left a message that I was returning his call as he requested; and, I made a comment that it appeared that we were playing phone tag.
To this day, Fred LeFebvre has not called me back. And now, if ever he does call, I’m not interested in speaking with him. I don’t play the games of the traditional media, especially those games of the dog-and-pony talk shows. I do not need to be in Fred LeFebvre’s limelight or in his shadow. And, I am certainly not at Fred LeFebvre’s beck and call.
I take Mr. LeFebvre’s extemporaneous inquiry and failure to follow through as not being really interested in the subject of an alternative structure of government for Lucas County.
I suspect that most residents of Lucas County are not interested in changing the government structure, either. They’d rather just sit back and beef, bellyache, bitch, gripe, grouse, squawk, holler, crab, kvetch, and complain about our government. And then, the majority of those people wants and expects someone else to deal with it all. "

Fred LeFebvre: The Disappearing Act
I'll stick up for Fred on this.
On the link provided to Roland Hansen's blog, there's a apology from Fred contained underneath Hansen's entry.
I mean, what's right is right.
fred apologized.
Yes, and I did it on his blog so he would see it. But give Steve credit. He is now citing sources that are only 2 years old instead of 4 or 5 years old. Soon he will be in the present with the rest of us. I can't figure for the life of me though where this fascination with me comes from. I can't ever remember working with a Steve Powers or firing one, or not hiring one or anything else with one. Well at least he spells my name correctly, that's something to build on Steve.
Here's to the crazy ones, the rebels, the troublemakers, the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them.
Just wanted to get your history out there.
I will get to the present as soon as I get through your past.
I'm sure the NEW headline will read "Fred LeFebvre and Brian Wilson's Shows Axed."
Don't worry Fred their getting close.
this is old news. Write blogs about the amount of time WSPD promotes TBT and how many signatures they actually collect! Either WSPD is way off base or they have no base of an audience!
Exactly Steve. Take a lesson from glasscat, at least he worked in radio for awhile.
