There are a couple of problems with this post. I'm going to fix a few of them and explain as I go
Please avoid changing the thread topic. If you want to add a sub-header add it in the post box. It helps us keep things tidy. The Michael Jackson Channel by myself has seemed to dredged up some bottom feeders too.
Now I know how the real celebrities feel. We got?a Enquirer-type self proclaimed journalist dogging the story, Madam chris Herget. I?m in a proverbial New Age retrograde. No *&&$, all true. I guess [she] doesn't appreciate the splendid work Ian Punnett did on hosting the program, nor George Noory's historical efforts to give honest review to the world's many and otherwise quieted voices. I give props to them for the bashing the backrooms give them; it?s unfair, I really feel they are way underappreciated. If we just put ourselves in those host?s shoes, we would realize how incredibly difficult their work is, and credible. We can?t judge others because their guest?s views don?t resonate with any one of us. And, if she?s going to bite the hand that feeds her, she?s not going to get anyone to work with her.
On the other hand, I would say some print writers have so very much to learn. Not sure if they need an education, or a life. My newsletter fan base gets a daily belly-laugh out of the hysterical ramblings of this one self-appointed biographer of my Coast to Coast appearance, Madame Chris Herget.
Apparently, from her writings, she has made deals with a number of fringe paranormal NewsFeeds; presumably with the intent to latch onto a newsworthy figure (this must be me, cringe, <help>) I think they call them ?tags? and she dogs and badgers them to get story handouts. But you know what they say about giving milk to cats?
Perhaps this is how they get their attention, by using others; certainly not to belittle any of the actual professional journalists that serve the communities at large. Of course, and to their credit, a true journalist actually shows integrity for his or her story and sources, but this one is all over the place. I?m serious here; this Ever-ready? bunny has gone solar. LOL And she has a stuck rudder, causing her to run around in circles. Banging her drum ? running around in circles. Banking her drum ? running around in circles. You have to imagine some tiny emaciated kitty playing with a great big ball of string. It entertains them all night, and beyond. They get no sleep following the thread before they figure out it?s just a ball of string. Don?t try and take away their toy, though. Meowwwww, scratch, scratch. Sorry to be so whimsical on a serious forum, it?s just that I got three different people calling in on three different lines ? you can?t buy this kind of publicity. She claims to write on the paranormal; I think we get it. Wooooo-oooo <twists fingers in the air>
She is entertaining, though, in a laughable way. It is like Mrs. Doubt-fire playing Lois Lane with a face full of egg-cream. She?s a real lion at heart, the network has fondly come to dub her Commandant Kriss-Helga Herr Gott (imagine Shultz with delusions). Helga, sorry Kriss ? whowever, her name changes with her mood swings ? writes [what] we have popularly come to title ?dynamic ink,? as the shadowy articles change right before your eyes, LOL sometimes dozens of times a day. IT?S ALL TRUE! You can?t buy creative journalism like this. From Angel of Mercy, to the Fallen Angel, she has more episodes and costume changes than a popular comic book. When she gets bored, she goes back and rewrites the prior daily truth. ?God I miss the Daily Planet.? What ever happened to truth, justice and the American way? LOL Obviously a latent history editorialist, she is subliminally aware that the victor writes history, hence the truth. The last pony has worn out that trick. The fans have been copying her diatribe every 10 minutes so we can go back and point out the hundreds or retractions because she found her negative comments were her own assumptions, and therefore wrong. Bad journalism. All the audio, most of which I have not even heard is being fashioned into a You-Tube so we can share the pure profanity that is her vocabulary off-camera. They're thinking of titling it "Airbrushed, the four-letter word journalist. " And subtitled, "Give me my story every day or you're in deep $(#*$." How brainless of her to call phones that she know is recording <duhh.> It will be clear to everyone why I refuse to work with her.
I hope this is not a threat. We've always been a bit picky about that and - with good reason - become more so lately. While indirect - it does smack of posting private information.
If everyone in my profession had this kind of paparazzi we would all be on the tonight show every evening. I?m writing to other Coast to Coast guests to find out how they?ve had to deal with OCD journalists. From burning tanna leaves at my literary feet, she has now turned to directing people to this George Noory reference forum to see how people hate me. Shucks, I thought we were all intelligent enough to actually communicate our mutual views; now this is a hate forum? Guess she thinks you?re all disdainful degenerates ? obviously she and Examiner.com hasn?t seen the real integrity of this board?s members.

[]We talked awhile about radio in general, which was a real treat for me -- being all dressed up with a BA in broadcast journalism and no place to go -- after all these years. I shared my opinion that I thought the hour was well-received, and mentioned the online discussions that were still being debated days later. One particular forum with the dubious URL of http://coastgab.com/index.php?topic=1495.18 is a place listeners of Coast to Coast a.m. can opine about everything C2C; from wishing retired Art Bell was still host of the show, to insisting George Noory is THEE best thing since fresh bread, sliced or otherwise.[/]

LOL, she got a BA today. And now, my friends who have proven themselves "the good gus" are D.U.B.I.O.U.S. How does that sit with you? Is that the pot calling the kettle black, or what???
Not since the wizard of Oz have we had a character like this. Put on your broom shields and take a peek. And stand back, a house could fall at any moment:
Start by imagining an incessant whining meow-w-w?w, as you read her unrelieved bay to the moon. This is all true stuff, I?ve got reams of dribble, and hours of recordings:
The opening act is Chris Herget seeks out the Reverend Dr. Christian von Lahr, Msc.D.:
?I just feel that I could benefit from something of this sort.?
-Chris.?
>DELETE< Please do not EVER post private info - even if it seems in the public domain - unless it is blatantly public (like george@coasttocoatam.com ) The address I just deleted is not the address this writer uses in her publications. Therefore - it is not "blatantly public"
The Pitch:
??it helped me understand a lot as well as have good information to present in a story??
"Chris H. "
>DELETE< AS ABOVE
?I would like to get ? Christian ? on all the news that continues to get blasted going on 12 days after DCVL's channeling session with MJ. I know it will probably be something along the lines of that he isn't surprised??

A Story Ensues Based on Coast to Coasts Stream Link replay:
Re: -- story
?I'm grateful for it (and awed by its words), ?.?
?You would have had no way of knowing all the trouble that has presented itself while trying to bring this story to light, and while I'm not speaking for Lon Strickler, I would like you to consider all the countless hours I've personally spent uncompensated, ??
?I need you to understand that I'm sensing ? I didn't need you to tell me how uncommonly busy you've been, you may need to hear how uncommonly busy I've been, and it hasn't all been peaches and cream. I?ve had to jump through hoops and deal with a lot of negative energy to make these stories ...?
?I underline the following statement in the darkest ink I can-- I'm not speaking for him, I'm only sharing the facts with you so that you can understand- that Lon, in addition to myself, has invested a lot of time dealing with things he could not have anticipated and because of that I've needed to essentially sweet talk him into even continuing the series. But he is still on board, and committed to running the stories and so am I.?
? I'm discouraged over my feeling that you have been less than appreciative or fully supportive since I first suggested doing these stories, and at the minimum you would approach my phone calls and emails with enthusiasm and gusto... I did make him aware that he may not be getting any more stories about this topic.?
?I've had to trade in a few nightly rituals and a whole bunch of sleep to make time to talk to everyone I needed to in the last 10 days, not to mention all the research and writing that comes with storytelling. ? I'm just being overly sensitive and dramatic because of the fact that I am so sleep deprived.?

-Chris Herget
seattle.beat@gmail.comThe Tragedy:
?Writing about paranormal topics isn't the easy life, ? ?I have no credibility, or writing talent for that matter.?

- Chris Herget
seattle.beat@gmail.com?Some people in my situation would be posting negative stuff in their story, but Not me. NOT YET.?
Chris Herget
seattle.beat@gmail.comThe Threat:
?I'm on deadline and as long as you're now saying that I'm such a pest, I might as well be. It would be so much easier just getting the information from you, than having to contact your peers ??
Chris Herget
seattle.beat@gmail.comWHERE DO YOU GO FROM HERE:
I?m calling on all Coast to Coast guests to ?withhold the milk!?
And RECALL any that?s out there.
LOL
One more thing - this post has been here for a while so FOR NOW - I'm letting it stand - but I wish I had looked at it more carefully before. We prefer people not post entire - or close to entire- articles because to do so is beyond "fair use" AND you can always jsut post a few lines and the URL.
That's all for now - as you were.EvB
