Fair use rationale for Image:KNGY-FM.png

Image:KNGY-FM.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Please stop the slander

Maybe the new owner is homophobic, maybe he isn't; but so far the only evidence given is that the new owner fired the staff of the radio station and changed the format. Changing the format is standard operating procedure when a new owner takes over, as is changing the staff. Both gay and straight employees were fired. So please stop screaming discrimination just because a decision was made that wasn't popular with the listeners. If you have a citation, put it in the article.

I've added ^{[citation needed]} to that controversy. If no one can find any articles to support the 'homophobe' claim, I Think the paragraph should be removed

I'm not sure "rumors say person X is a homophobe" and citing blogs saying that he is (with none of them giving evidence outside of that he fired people that happened to be gay and straight) is an improvement. It's still not evidence, and changing the accusation from "You're an X!" to "I heard you're an X!" is not materially different. Unless someone can find real evidence (a quote, a past action, or him rehiring all the straight employees while not rehiring the gay ones), I'm removing the line since it violates the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons policy. Firing someone without regard to sexual orientation is far different than firing someone because of sexual orientation.

About Receiver Larry Patrick

Removed "debtor in possession" - no citation. Solid Research (talk) 05:09, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Expanded, corrected and updated the article regarding the attempted sale of the stations. The citations are to articles on pmjmp.org. It is worth noting that the research in those articles are supported by citations to the actual court documents in question, a reliable source.
