On 1-23-10 Mr Bill Moore made statements on his radio broadcast
 
about his webmaster that were NOT accurate...not by a long shot!  Among those
 
  statements was "his distorted and false account" of the contents
 
of an email sent to him by his webmaster on 1-22-10 (pictured below). 
 
There were several fallacies ranted by Moore...
 
my email to him is just for starters..... 
 
 
 
Moore also made false statements about the websites webmaster over the airwaves regarding the discussions & events that took place involving the content for the TOS website itself and our contract and how it was to be fulfilled by the webmaster & Moore according to our agreement.
 
Moore also did not tell the truth about how the webmaster came about to be the person that built and  maintained his site.  The webmaster was "IN STUDIO" when the offer to build the website was made.  Mr. Moore, the webmaster & Gregg Stoll then discussed the show and my doing the website over lunch after the Saturday morning show.  The amount and all the details were discussed at that meeting at Drifters.  Moore asked me to stay on and maintain the site after I had built it for him (free of costs for my time).  Moore was also the person that came up with the dollar amount that we agreed on.  He went so far as to tell me that if that was not enough money, to let him know.  Sound familiar Bill?
 
Moore did NOT at any time tell the webmaster that she had to have any or all content approved prior to posting it being on the site either.  At no time did he ever state such a remark. 
Moore made the decision to have no involvement with the website or it's contents.  Bill went so far as to block my email address from his account.  I have several accounts, I tried using all of them to get through to him to be able to work on his website.  Moore blocked all of the email addresses at one point. 
The webmaster upheld the contract, Moore did not.
 

My next email to Mr. Moore would have been about how to build up his audience, & what simple steps needed to be taken.   And also for payment, as he is in arrears and has been for several months.  I emailed Bill a reminder for payment once and was stunned by the return email from him:

  Bill's email to be posted here. 

Mr. Moore made statements that I said I would build a website for him for free.  That is true and I did build his website free of charge for my time.  After I built the website for him, as I said I would, I gave the website information to his former producer, Michelle.  Neither she or Bill could/would maintain the site.  Mr. Moore then asked me to stay on and manage his website for a monthly fee.  Mr. Moore came up with the dollar amount and we both entered into this verbal contract.  I held up my end of the agreement. 

The normal cost to build and/or construct a website such as what I gave Bill, would have cost hundreds of dollars.  It's very time intensive.  I gave the start up of the site to him for no charge to get the site up and running out of my own pocket, again for no charge for my countless hours of work to construct it, because I believed  in what the project would accomplish, to  have Bill Moore come into the 21st century and expand his presents on this media called the internet.

I requested input from Mr. Moore over the two years I worked on this website.  Mr. Moore did not cooperate in the construction of the site, or it's upkeep.  I am not a mind reader.  Much of what I researched and posted on the site is due to interest from website visitors and/or topics that were being addressed on the show.  The only request in the last year from Mr. Moore was to not post national news prior to the '08 elections.  Ironically, shortly after telling me to not post national issues, Mr. Moore began to bring national topics up on his show...after Obama was elected.

The following was a normal email sent to Mr. Moore:

 

The following is a typical response Mr. Moore:

 

 

I didn't take on this project to do it for Mr. Moore exclusively, but for all the listeners & non-listeners  that truly care about the direction your government has taken regarding the ongoing diminishing of outdoor opportunities and the ugly politics behind it. 

Mr Moore is and has been several months behind in his payments.  He breached the contract months ago.  I was kind enough to continue on without payments being current for months now for the better good to all.  I did this work from the beginning to help everyone that loves Michigan like I do and wants to make it a great place to live and visit. 

My reasons were and are sincere.

 
 
Since Mr. Moore was so uncooperative in my opinion
about working on the actual solving of any issues within our state
(& where would the content of the TOS show be if we did fix the issues - think about that).
We needed a place where we could all work together to improve Michigan,
not just to complain & bash people. 
So, a few of us have come together and started
a new website to hopefully help accomplish some of these goals. 
 
 
 
I hope you'll join myself and others you'll recognize there!
 
 
In the coming days I will post more FACTS on this website
about what really went on, if need be.
Unlike Mr. Moore, I have FACTS to back up my statements!  
 
Bill's audience also needs to understand that Mr. Moore cherry picks the calls that come into the station and what callers can talk on the air and who can't.  If you are someone that might have an opposing view or know some enlightening information that might not put Mr. Moore in the best of light with his audience, he most likely will not let you get on the air.
 
**Note that I called into the radio station on 1/23/10 to talk with Mr. Moore ON THE AIR while these falsehoods were being spewed about me over the airwaves.  Bill Moore refused to put me on the air so I could confront him and dispute his statements.  I called in and spoke to his producer.  After telling his producer "I don't want to talk to her", I gave his producer a message and we ended our call.  After Bill knew I was off the phone, he then said "put her on".  Where Bill sits in the studio, he can see if the producer
is on the phone or not very clearly. 
That moment was staged for the listeners...it's called show-boating...the drama! 
What does that tell you....why not take my call?
 
* Also note that the last phone conversation I recieved from Mr. Moore about anything to do with the TOS website was recieved the day after the DNR claimed to have discovered CWD downstate. Mr. Moore called and told me that he was going to write up an opinion piece about it.  He never did and I've never gotten a call from him since or a single thing to be added to this website.  As a matter of FACT, he hung up on me on that phone call after going on some tirade that I have no understanding of other than his difficulties in working with a woman.  That is the last time he's ever called me or made any comment to me about anything to do with the TOS website.
The truth will set you free Bill Moore!
 
 
 

Thanks for everything everyone!

It's been a bumpy but, interesting ride! 

I hope to see you at our new website. 

Many of the same wonderful people you've

come to like and know through this

show & group of people are there as well...

...including others that have been thrown under the bus! 

 

I'm not backing away from working on the issues

that effect us in Michigan. 

Come and join us and collectively we can solve some

of these issues that effect us all. 

 

Love ya' & see you at the new site! 

Nan, former webmaster to TOS show
