Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal controls relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on conducting the audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Because of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, however, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion As explained in Note 9 to the financial statements, the Foundation is the sponsor of two distinct pension plans covering substantially all employees. Both plans are delinquent in obtaining audited financial statements as required by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). Additionally, both plans are delinquent with filing tax returns with the IRS. As of the date of the Independent Auditors’ Report June 27, 2019: (a) audits of the plans for 2017 had not been completed, (b) audits of the plans for 2016 had not been completed, (c) an audit of one of the plans for 2015 had not been completed, and (d) an audit of one of the plans for 2015 was not required. We were thus unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the correct pension accruals, penalties, and fines for the year ended September 30, 2017. 1 Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion (continued) Additionally, we were unable to obtain audit evidence to support the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements due to difficulties in obtaining sufficient supporting documentation from some of the locations. Certain stations do not use the same accounting software as the corporate office. Some of the data from these stations could not be fully verified because it was missing. As a result, we were unable to determine whether any adjustments were necessary to make relating to the Foundation’s statement of financial position; and the elements making up the statements of activities, functional expenses, and cash flows for the year then ended. Disclaimer of Opinion Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer for Opinion paragraph, we have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on these financial statements. Substantial Doubt About the Organization’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Foundation will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 12 to the financial statements, the Foundation has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net deficit that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions, and management’s plans regarding those matters, are described in Notes 12 and 13. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters The financial statements of the Foundation as of September 30, 2016, were audited by other auditors whose report, dated May 31, 2018, expressed a qualified opinion on those statements. We were engaged for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements as a whole. The supplementary schedules included on pages 30, 32, and 34 are presented for the purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, it is inappropriate to and we do not express an opinion on the supplementary information referred to above. 2 Other Matters (continued) The information for the year ended September 30, 2016 on pages 31, 33, and 35 was subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements by other independent auditors, whose report, dated May 31, 2018, indicated that such information is fairly stated in all material respects to the basic statements as a whole.

  • Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
    Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

ARTICLES THE IMPACT OF Pacifica FoundationON TWO TRADITIONS OF FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION STEPHEN W. GARD* AND JEFFREY ENDREssf I. INTRODUCTION T HERE EXIST IN THIS NATION TWO TRADITIONS of freedom of expression: "that of the written and spoken word and that of the broadcast word."' The contrast between these two traditions is extraordinary. The first has its 2 roots in the historic rejection of administrative licensing of the written word and the popular repudiation of the Alien and Sedition Act of 1798.3 This tradition regards prior restraints as virtually verboten4 and all governmental regulation of the content of expression as inherently suspect.5 In short, here freedom of speech is the rule and governmental regulation is an exception to be jealously confined within narrow, judicially defined, limits.

DRUMMOND: (Sauntering away.) This is going to be a barren source of amusement.1 In the half-century since the above exchange, "God" and "Hell" have become routine utterances on radio and television as American society and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) 2 have changed their perception of what is "offensive" language.
