MARK HATFIELD: CORRUPT, INCOMPETENT, LYING, TWO FACED GM AT KDRV/KDKF TV (KDRV.COM) NEWSWATCH CHANNEL 12 IN MEDFORD.
THIS ARTICLE JUST PASSED 20,000 READERS/SUBSCRIBERS!!!
The reason for this article: This website is about exposing corruption in all aspects of the media. Throughout my entire career I had nothing but positive experiences in my journey in the radio and TV media with KDRV Channel 12 being the lone black mark. It was such a bizarre world of twisted lies and astoundingly idiotic leadership with one incompetent Mark Hatfield at the helm, I felt like it needed to be addressed on an international level for the world to see. The person who hired me was named Renard Maiuri. Now, I didn't get to work with him for too long because shortly after I was hired he resigned and the stooge of the hour named Mark Hatfield took the helm.**__
Hatfield was a disaster! He was a no talent loser that didn't have a clue how to run a newsroom and much less manage people. Hatfield was as unprofessional as they come and was so backward with people it seemed like he had severe mental and psychological disabilities along with inappropriate behavior problems as I will document below. One bizarre issue was telling a reporter he was a virgin. I mean, who does something that bizarre in any workplace? This is exactly the kind of behavior as to why Hatfield is still in such a small market at such an advanced age. This P.O.S. even once tried to threaten me by "not having my contract renewed".
Well, that would have been a fun lawsuit for me that I would have won, but it just wasn't worth it in the end to stay there and deal with Hatfield and his ugly mug everyday. Hopefully, this report will awake people as to how television really works in small markets and will expose the corruption in stations like KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon. The fact is, I know that losers like Hatfield have given people bad references just because they are not his cup of slimy tea. I suspect he may have done that with me at least once. But, I think it's important to expose who the real scum of the earth is and no one stinks higher than Hatfield and I think it's important that young aspiring journalists not get caught up with lying, two faced creeps like Mark Hatfield
Isn't it ironic? But we can continually monitor this website article and who was on it, where they came form, how long they were on...etc. We constantly see hits from Medford or Central point Oregon. Well, let it be known, we will always be posting updates from people and former employees who can tell the truth about what a failure this Hatfield dude was. The most ironic thing is I have been in touch with other reporters from my time at KDRV who think as low of Hatfield as I do. (BELOW) Here is a sample of hits from Central Point checking in on what we have to say. Well let us assure you...it isn't good for Mark Hatfield. It would have been better for him to be an honest, truthful mentor, rather than a lying, two faced scum of the earth which he is that we are exposing now. But it was his choice to take the low road, not ours.
Hatfield's favorite phrase was "I don't like surprises". WELL GUESS WHAT "SELF PROCLAIMED VIRGIN BOY HATFIELD", "SURPRISE"!!!!THE WHOLE INTERNET WORLD AND OVER 20,000 HITS HERE KNOW NOW WHAT A LYING SACK OF SH*T AND LYING PIECE OF GARBAGE LOSER YOU ARE!!!! DO NOT EVER WORK FOR MARK HATFIELD AT NEWSWATCH 12 KDRV TV IN OREGON! HE IS A LYING, TWO FACED HYPOCRITICAL PIECE OF CRAP LOSER THAT DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE!
(HATFIELD) TWO-FACED, LYING, GOOFBALL IN ACTION! HE MIGHT WANT TO WASH THAT PULL-OVER NOW AND THEN..
Hatfield is also a "Gaslighter." What's a Gaslighter you ask? It's when he, (HATFIELD), will try to make you think you're doing a bad job when in fact you are doing a good job, but he has his own hidden agenda in mind in wanting someone else to have your job. Basically, "Gaslighters" want to play the "victim" and want to make you think there is something wrong with you, when in fact, THEY are the instigators who are lying, manipulating pieces of crap!!!. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! There's a reason Hatfield can't get out of a small market and get a real job in a larger market that actually pays some money. Why do you think he gets kicked out of other places and ends back here? Short answer: BECAUSE HATFIELD IS A NO TALENT, TWO FACED, LYING LOSER!!!
Wow! Look at the globe below this article and the hits we are getting in the red! The word is getting out about lying scumbags like Mark Hatfield (ABOVE) in the media!!! Look at the comments where people are actually seeing this and having an input at the end of this article! Let's keep it going! The more the truth gets out, the more people like Mark Hatfield will cease to exist in any kind of management position in the mainstream media!! Social Media can be a great tool!!
DOES MARK HATFIELD HAVE SEVERE PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES? DOES HE NEED PROFESSIONAL MENTAL HELP?
If you want to e-mail Hatfield: You can do that at: markhatfield@kdrv.com. Let him know what a disgusting human he is just like the comments below:

Phone: 541-773-1212
DOES HATFIELD HAVE MENTAL DISORDERS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN COVERED UP? "INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR" IS THE BEST PHRASE I CAN COME UP WITH WHEN LOOKING BACK ON THIS SCUMBAG! If you are a new reporter considering working at KDRV, have you ever considered why this lying, two faced scumbag (Hatfield) is still working at a small market with no way out, 20 years after I have exposed him? THINK ABOUT IT!!! Name ONE person who moved to a major market after working with Hatfield..JUST ONE! You can't! Okay, now name one New Director that has moved on to a Major Market from KDRV in 20 years? None? Right Again!! 20 years should tell you something about why dirtbag Hatfield is where he is and why you don't want to be there!!!
The more I look into this kind of incompetence that Hatfield exhibited while I was there, he was so unprofessional and clueless, that I really started to wonder if he was suffering from some kind of psychological/mental illness disorder that Chambers Communication owners knew about and covered up. Because in the end, It's hard for me to fathom that someone (Like Hatfield), can be this clueless, racist, uneducated and ignorant as he is. On top of that, to wear the same clothes constantly..."green pullover" (Is it washed?), to promote homosexual professional wrestling and (on top of that), admit to a co-worker that he is a virgin! REALLY! WHO TELLS A REPORTER HE IS A VIRGIN? I'll tell you, someone who is mentally unstable! Just my opinion, come to your own conclusion on the mental stability of someone who does this!!!
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR THIS!!!! LET'S LOOK AT PROOF THAT MARK HATFIELD IS AN INCOMPETENT, MENTALLY CHALLENGED LOSER THAT HAS NO BUSINESS IN THE MEDIA! THE "COMMENTS" BELOW AND OUR ARTICLE WILL PROVE THIS!!!
RULE NUMBER 1
DO NOT MAKE ENEMIES IN THIS BUSINESS!! MARK HATFIELD OF KDRV IS NOTHING BUT A BALD, FAT, LOSER. HE'S AN IGNORANT JOKE WHO THINKS PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IS A SPORT WHO HAS AN UGLY OVERBITE (YIKES! BALD AND UGLY).
In this report, I want to expose a liar and unqualified person that I had the misfortune to work for at KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon. MARK HATFIELD. I want to expose the most unprofessional, two faced, lying scum, that I have ever come across in my career. HERE IS MY STORY: Mark Hatfield is too inexperienced and incompetent to be named the "NEWS MANAGER" at KDRV. Mark Hatfield is a liar extraordinaire and I want to expose anything that will keep new potential hires from the lies that I had to deal with from management at KDRV!!!
Luke 12:2-3
“But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known. “Accordingly, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops".
YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!
BUT, that said, we can now present the truth about the media and KDRV and the corrupt management that I experienced FIRSTHAND!!!!!
Let's keep hits to coming to this website as we get thousands everyday!!!!! Don't let the mainstream media and lying, idiotic people like Mark Hatfield get in positions like this! Even in small markets!
If you are a new hire prospect at KDRV, click here!!!"KDRV NEWS DIRECTOR MARK HATFIELD IS A LYING STOOGE THAT IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED Let's look at all the internet sources on Hatfield that bring us back here and his lying tactics!
LET'S LOOK AT KDRV AND TWO FACED, LYING MARK HATFIELD! DO NOT WORK FOR THIS MAN!!!!!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!! If you are a new hire thinking about working at KDRV, e-mail us and we will send you e-mails of a half-dozen people who have worked for this loser who will tell you not to work for this lying, two faced sorry dude in person....Once again, don't take our word for it, let us send you to numerous bad references for Hatfield....as if the comments below don't convince you!!
No two ways about it, Mark Hatfield who is the GM of KDRV in Medford is a lying, two-faced human being that you would be sorry you worked with!! We will prove that here. Hatfield is a, lying, manipulative loser who you will regret working with!!! All you need to do is look at the comments below this article to see who this low life, loser is all about!
"TELL ME A STORY!" And "NO GOOD!"
That was Hatfield's "go to" line whenever he thought he was critiquing someone's News story. Yea, but what does that really mean? NOTHING! Because Hatfield doesn't know the difference between what is good and what is bad. But that is how he dealt with people. With one lined canned instructions because in the end, he wasn't capable of any meaningful dialogue that would help anyone because he's an incompetent fool. What kind of "story" did he want? Professional Wrestling stories? Big Fish stories? Another term he would use when people were doing the best they could is in his all "cockiness" he would say "This is no good!"
To that I say BULL!!!! The only "NO GOOD" person in that meeting was lying, hypocritical, two faced, incompetent, Mark Hatfield!!!!! Well, Let me tell our readers "A TRUE STORY" about what I had to put up with to work with this moron for a year and it isn't pretty. Hopefully any new hires will read this before accepting a job at KDRV.
Here's the deal. People who have worked in the media, radio or TV are being subject to the people they work for to give them a positive reference or a negative one based on how they are perceived by the local News Directors or News Managers. BUT, what if you have a News Director who has his own agenda in mind?
What if the management you work for is "racist", "sexist" or something else? What do you do then? Well, I want to break that habit here and expose what I went through working for the most incompetent management with an agenda I have ever seen or worked with! That management is from KDRV in Medford, Oregon. I will provide PROOF of my allegations below. If you are a new reporter looking for advancement, DO NOT accept a job under Mark Hatfield! HE IS A HYPOCRITICAL, LYING DISASTER!!!
There are very few people that I don't get along with in life. I have had success in every professional job I have had in the media. Almost everyone are still friends of mine. The lone exception is when I worked for KDRV, when the News Manager (Hatfield), was not only the worst person I have come in contact with as a person, but by far the worst person I have dealt with as a professional. Mark Hatfield ( I have to say) is someone who is the most untrustworthy, deceitful, lying, despicable person I have ever dealt with on any level.
MARK HATFIELD IS A LYING, STOOGE!!!!!! YOUNG REPORTERS! DO NOT WORK WITH THIS MAN!!!!
If you are a hopeful reporter that has any potential hire at KDRV, hopefully you will read this with the comments below and not allow this lying poor excuse for a News Manager named Mark Hatfield have anything to do with new hires. IF YOU WORK WITH HIM, YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!
Just remember, just because this lying, loser Hatfield, gives you an interview, doesn't mean this a good place to work. LET ME SAVE YOU THE TROUBLE!!!! DO NOT WORK FOR KDRV!!!!!
MY STORY REPORTED BY MY FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE IS NOW HERE!!!!!
Before I start this entire report. I want to tell everyone that in 1996, I was offered a job at KDRV in Medford Oregon. I took the job thinking it would further my career and thought it would be a good place to work. I COULDN'T HAVE LOOKED AT THIS MORE WRONG!!! After a certain set of circumstances, I became the Sports Director with incompetent Mark Hatfield at the helm, it was apparent I had been lied to about this whole charade.
NEWSWATCH 12? WHAT ARE THEY WATCHING?
At one time my parents came up to visit and watched this station and I was embarrassed for them at what they looked at. They looked at an incompetent protege' of Mark Hatfield named Ben Becker make a complete fool of himself promoting Professional Wrestling and with another segment called "Ben's Big Fish" along the same story line.
PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IS A SPORT? OR SOMETHING ELSE? Let's take a look at this video where you can see Professional Wrestling has a history of inappropriate sexual harassment even from it's top stars. Hatfield must know this and if he didn't, it's just more proof what an incompetent person he is.
As you watch this video (above), remember: THIS IS THE SPORT HATFIELD WAS OPENLY PROMOTING!!! ON A MAINSTREAM TV STATION NO LESS! Let's listen to Rowdy Roddy Piper admit he was molested by numerous wrestlers! Keep in mind! THIS IS WHAT HATFIELD WAS PROMOTING ON KDRV!!!!!
We know there have been numerous lawsuits with the WWE and WWF alleging homosexual abuse which includes Pat Patterson and Rowdy Roddy Piper. Even though I was the Sports Director, Hatfield and his "little buddy" didn't consult me at all with this promotion of this charade aired at KDRV, and if they had I would have struck it down! I could only handle this station for a year (professionally and ethically) So, let's look at why this happened and why I would not suggest anyone work for Mark Hatfield and his lying manipulative agenda where I believe racism is a big part of this!!! READ ON!!!
HERE IS MORE DOCUMENTED PROOF THAT WRESTLING HAS SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND HOMOSEXUAL LAWSUITS!!! HOW CAN ANYONE TAKE MARK HATFIELD SERIOUSLY AS HE OPENLY PROMOTED THIS GARBAGE!!!!
MARK HATFIELD, THE NO GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY.... BALD WANNABE HATFIELD WAS ALL of these.
If you are a new reporter and have been offered a job a KDRV in Medford, Oregon, read this report before you ever work under Mark Hatfield. He is a disgusting, lying loser that has no people skills and is as unprofessional as they come.
RACISTS COMMENTS FROM HATFIELD'S "BOY" (BECKER)
See below with his protege' Ben Becker, talking about "Once you go black, you never go back" in this case talking about golf balls. BUT! Was he (Becker), really talking about golf balls and was there a deeper meaning between these two and all the so called "news stories" that they presented that had to do with "Race" and a "Homosexual agenda?"
We will leave the final opinion to the reader, but let me present to you FACTS about KDRV when I was employed there in 1996. If you doubt this, just Google the employees at KDRV and see how many minorities you see. IF YOU ARE A NEWS REPORTER THINKING OF BEING HIRED BY KDRV, you need to be informed before you work for this lying creepy dude!
NOTE: THIS MAN (HATFIELD), IS UNQUALIFIED TO JUDGE ANYONE'S TALENT OR BE IN ANY KIND OF POSITION OF LEADERSHIP. IF I WORKED AT THIS STATION TODAY, I WOULD NEVER PUT UP WITH HIM. I WOULD CONTACT OWNERSHIP AND TELL THEM TO BUY ME OUT OF MY CONTRACT OR PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN THIS POSITION FOR ME TO ANSWER TO AS I WOULD REFUSE TO ANSWER TO ANYONE AS BLATANTLY IGNORANT AND INCOMPETENT AS HATFIELD!
MORE B.S.WITH MARK HATFIELD AND KDRV
In short, my agenda is to expose the mainstream media (local) and their lies. I saw this first hand when I worked as the Sports Director at KDRV in Medford, Oregon. First, I want to point out the lies I encountered first hand at this affiliate.
THIS REPORT IS "THE TRUTH" AS I HAVE WITNESSED AS A FORMER EMPLOYEE OF KDRV IN 1996.
CORRUPT MANAGEMENT AT KDRV
I was hired as a reporter/anchor for KDRV and this is my "report" of the corrupt management of the worst corporation I have ever worked with. Remember, the truth is the best defense! I think it's important that new potential hires know about this corrupt organization so they don't go the same route I did, which was to quit your job and move to Oregon and KDRV and deal with the same corrupt, lying management I had to deal with.
Remember, there is no law against having an opinion!__
I foolishly believed this would be a good career move to come to this place and I was not only lied to about the money I would make, but about the whole environment I would work with and that includes Chambers Communication at the time. With that said, I want to point out the comments below from people who have first hand knowledge about the unethical happenings at KDRV that verify what is being said here! I regret ever moving from Denver to take this job as it cost me to make this move to an organization that did nothing but lie to me and make empty promises with the lying scumbag MARK HATFIELD at the helm!!!!
WELL, WELL, WELL, LOOKS LIKE SCUMBAG HATFIELD WANTS TO BE TOLD A "STORY". WELL HERE IS MY STORY!!!
Just look at the smug "smirk" on his face that professionals who evaluate liars like Hatfield call "Duping Delight". Which is common with people (Like Hatfield) who know they are lying and take delight in fooling you! Thank goodness there are thousands of people who read this site and can see what unethical people like Hatfield are all about! Just scroll below to see the globe and see how many people are waking up to these liars like Mark Hatfield. PASS THIS ON!!!!
This is why you will NOT get the real news from local TV. Throughout my years of working in the mainstream media. I can tell you first hand that it isn't "news" at all. It's propaganda to get you hooked so they can bombard you with advertisements. And it doesn't just happen on the national level, it starts at the local level. Let's look at some instances that show what an incompetent fool Mark Hatfield is.
WHERE IS MEDFORD'S CHAD COTA FROM? HATFIELD DOESN'T KNOW!
First example of incompetence of Hatfield: WHERE IS AN ATHLETE FROM?
Everyone in year one journalism knows that when you identify "where" an athlete is from, you talk about where they CURRENTLY LIVE. Everyone knows that. Tiger Woods was not born in Jupiter, Fl., but that's where he is from.
Sonny Liston (The heavyweight champ in 1964), was from, Denver, Co., even though he wasn't born there. I did an interview with Oregon's Chad Cota who was drafted by the Carolina Panthers. He lived in Medford, Oregon, which I identified him as being from. Well, dumbass Hatfield called me into his office and tried to convince me that Cota should be listed from (Ashland) even though he didn't live there. And in his stupid arrogance tried to tell me that I, (not being from Oregon) was at a "disadvantage" because he (Hatfield) "knew too much".
Let's look at that idiotic statement. If he was so knowledgeable, he should be an "advantage" to me. But he looked at it as the opposite. Why? Because he's an incompetent, idiot who can't manage people and can't figure out simple journalistic facts like "where is athlete is FROM". I can't stress enough what a moron this guy is and can't fathom why he still has a job. Again, from my perspective, I can only come up with him being a POS racist as to why he could possibly be this stupid on simple news stories.
No question the worst job I have ever had was when I was the Sports Director at KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon when a highly unqualified, incompetent, and in my opinion racist, man named Mark Hatfield was named the News Manager essentially by default. I went to work for the most unethical, incompetent management I ever had to work with at KDRV. Basically, one year of my professional life was lost working for this unprofessional management at KDRV and Mark Hatfield was the lying stooge of the hour that I had to deal with.
RACIST HISTORY IN OREGON
Little Known Black History Fact: Oregon’s Racist Past which would influence KDRV.
The Pacific Northwest is often seen as a region where racial tolerance might be expected and that opportunities for all Americans might be available. However, Black residents of the “Beaver State” say Oregon is hiding a racist past and that examples of said racism exists even today.
In 1859, Oregon became a state and issued a statewide law that no "Black person", not even a mixed person, could live there. It was the only free state in the Union that had such a law forbidding Blacks from living there. Naturally, this law was defied and an example of this occurred in the progressive and Eco-friendly city of Portland.
Black businessmen W.D. Allen and George Moore opened the Golden West Hotel in 1906, and it became the center of Black prominence and movement in the state. The hotel was successful, but buckled under the weight of The Great Depression and shuttered its doors in 1931. It has since been reopened as a historic reminder of Portland’s rich Black past.
Also telling was that the Ku Klux Klan opened a chapter in the state in 1921, and the state law barring Blacks was still in effect. The law was removed from the books in 1926 but the roots of racism ran far too deeply.
Current residents say that Oregon’s racism persists today although it’s a lot more covert. Some say that housing discrimination, a dearth of Black people being hired for work, and racial profiling are hallmarks of the actions those residents have endured over the years. There are even records of Black Oregon homeowners being forced from their homes and not given new opportunities to own again.
A 2015 documentary, “Lift Ev’ry Voice,” focuses heavily on Portland’s Black history and some of the barriers faced by those within the community.
Current residents say that Oregon’s racism persists today although it’s a lot more covert.

MORE PROOF OF MEDFORD'S RACIST PAST
NASTY E-MAILS FOR LOSER HATFIELD
Through my contacts, I understand that at times the station gets nasty e-mails through it's tip line from former employees complaining about this man. From my perspective, it may be just about anybody because he no doubt made numerous enemies in his time. While I can't speak about who or why that is happening, I can surely give you my first hand experience and knowledge about my stay there which was some 20 years ago and shed some light about why so many people can't stand Mark Hatfield.
One thing losers like Hatfield don't understand is that he doesn't evaluate people that worked at KDRV, in the long run...... "WE EVALUATE HIM!!!" Which is happening now to a worldwide audience. By the way, why is Hatfield smiling? Doesn't he realize almost everyone that has worked with this moron has bad things to say about him? Oh, maybe a frown should be appropriate...__
Looks like four eyes is starting to look like a middle aged lady with no hair with bag lady eyes, not only that, but he looks like he's on the donuts, ice cream and beer health diet..
h1. MARK HATFIELD IS A LYING LOSER!
In short, Mark Hatfield, is an untrustworthy, lying, manipulative loser. DO NOT TRUST OR WORK FOR THIS MAN!!!!!
WHAT TO DO IF YOU WORK FOR MARK HATFIELD AND YOU THINK HE HAS UNFAIRLY PICKED YOU OUT AND MADE YOUR JOB MORE DIFFICULT THAN IT SHOULD BE OR IF YOU THINK HE IS INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGING YOU. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I WAS EMPLOYED AT KDRV...
If you work for Mark Hatfield and you feel like you are unfairly being singled out for no apparent reason and you are being criticized when you know you are doing a good job or you feel he is intentionally making your job more difficult than it needs to be, or if you feel like you are being discriminated against (which more people than just I thought during my time at KDRV).

WHY YOU DON'T WANT TO WORK FOR LIAR MARK HATFIELD
Mark Hatfield, 51, (55 now) News Director at KDRV for years. He's a Seattle native with a degree from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma and TV experience in Wenatchee, Spokane and Seattle and some public relations background. Trust us! Hatfield is a lying, poor excuse for a human being that shouldn't be a mentor for young reporters!! He has his own agenda, he's a liar, he's insecure, he's a horrible human being and hopefully, any new reporter will not be suckered in by this loser who cares about no one but his own selfish agenda...
The homosexual professional wrestling angle (Which KDRV SUPPORTED) and idiotic agenda for Hatfield will be exposed below. It's been said from one reporter in my presence that they don't understand why Hatfield was in bed, (figuratively I'm guessing but who really knows), with his fellow (wrestling buddy Ben Becker) and I think we can figure that out why when you read on. (I MADE NO ACCUSATIONS HERE, I"M JUST SAYING.....WTF!) You figure this out!! Especially when you see what Hatfield's buddy, Becker once said on the air (and we kid you not) "If you go black, you never go back."
Hatfield is not presentable for clients who want professionals. He has no knack for issues, he doesn't know "NEWS" and what the viewers want. He has no "people" skills. He just has no value in the world of television for young talent to learn. In short, Hatfield has no value for an up and coming reporter. If he doesn't like you, which is true for any one with talent, he will try to black ball you! Because he's a jealous, no talent loser who does not want people to advance because he can't!!!! TAKE MY ADVICE! IF YOU HAVE A FIRST JOB! DO NOT WORK AT KDRV!!!
There was a young female reporter/anchor when I was employed at KDRV who was a good talent. For some reason Hatfield didn't like her (Maybe he hit on her and she wanted no part of it). Anyway, she called me to ask her to be a reference. I thought she was great and I was a good reference for her. Not too long after that, a News Director in Duluth Minnesota called me and asked what I thought of her. Of course I gave her glowing references and she actually got the job!!!! Something that wouldn't have happened if he called liar Hatfield! Not doubt, he would have given her a bad reference because she turned down is advances!! (That's exactly what she told me), I was told this by her first hand!! Another bizarre comment made from Hatfield's News Anchor in front of all of us (Who is still employed by KDRV, by the way), was "Mark Hatfield probably irons is underwear!" I have no idea what this means...I don't know. But I find it curious all these statements were circulating in the newsroom about this toxic moron Mark Hatfield!!
IF YOU ARE A YOUNG REPORTER LOOKING FOR YOUR FIRST JOB, YOU DO NOT WANT TO WORK FOR THIS MAN! HE HAS BEEN KNOWN TO GIVE BAD REFERENCES WHEN YOU GO ON TO TRY TO GET YOUR NEXT JOB. GIVING A BAD REFERENCE JUST BECAUSE HATFIELD MAY NOT PERSONALLY LIKE SOMEONE IS UNETHICAL AND ILLEGAL! THE FACT IS, THE PERSON WHO HATFIELD BLACK BALLED MAY DEVELOP INTO A GOOD REPORTER SOMEWHERE ELSE BY WORKING WITH A REAL NEWS DIRECTOR.
MORE ON OREGON'S RACIST PAST THAT IS STILL IN IN EFFECT TODAY:
h1. BUT WHEN HAS ETHICS NEVER STOPPED HATFIELD?__By the way , I know for a fact that Hatfield may give you a bad reference. How do I know? Because I set him up on two different occasions and recorded this and he is to stupid to figure this out! By the way, we have proof!!

MORE JOBS HATFIELD WAS RUN OUT FROM:
Hatfield looks like he's been run from of a lot of places that include:
Eugene, or.
Shelton, Wa.
Bellevue, wa.
Santa Maria, ca.
New Castle, wa.
Omaha, Ne.
Kirkland, wa.
Pismo Beach, ca.
Inglemoor H.S. (No doubt he was the unpopular fat kid who got picked on)
We are not sure what this loser did before he was involved in the media, but he may have been involved with organizations like Butler Imports and Galbraith laboratories. Not sure if he was or wasn't, but it sure tells you he has no talent or background as being a leader in the media...
Hummm! If he was valuable, why has he been kicked out of so many places?
Hatfield also has had problems with not following the "Legal Issues" which you would think someone as visible in the community as Hatfield is, wouldn't have. If you doubt, look this up!

COPIED HATFIELD LEGAL ISSUES:
When I first walked into the newsroom, I noticed that News Manager Mark Hatfield sported a "Hitler Mustache" (BELOW). You'll see him below. Hummm, wonder why he had a "Hitler" mustache? Racist? YES! Read on and I think you will see. There is nothing positive I can say about Hatfield. Other than he is a creepy, lying, untrustworthy person with absolutely zero integrity. But keep in mind, it's not just him. There are clones like him all over America that have the same unethical habits and that eventually comes out in the product you see on TV.
HATFIELD THE VIRGIN!!!! NOT SURPRISING!
Here's the one that takes the cake. Mark Hatfield was talking to one of his reporters in a closed door meeting.
And for what ever idiotic reason, he revealed to her that he was "a virgin." OH MY!!!! What kind of an intellectually challenged individual, that is involved in news, tells one of his reporters that kind of intimate information and doesn't think she will tell EVERYONE!! HEY! HATFIELD DUMASS! Let's let the fact that you go "solo act" keep that between you and your therapist! Hatfield telling someone he is a virgin is the most idiotic thing any human being I know in the News Media has ever done to embarrass themselves, and this poor excuse for a manager actually did this!!
HATFIELD THE VIRGIN? YEP! BY HIS OWN ADMISSION:
Hey, if you think this is bizarre! READ ON!
What kind of a "News Manager/GM" sports a "Hitler Mustache" especially when his protege, Ben Becker, Makes the most "racist" statement on the air of "Once you go black, you never go back" Unless Hatfield is supportive of that kind of bigotry?
I like the caption on this below:
h1. ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! ALL HATFIELD DID WAS THE TIME I WAS THERE IN MEDFORD IS MAKE UP STORY LINES LIKE "BEN'S BIG FISH" and promote Professional Wrestling. WHAT A JOKE HE IS!!! AND ON TOP OF THAT HE REVEALED TO HIS OWN REPORTER THAT HE IS A VIRGIN!!!!!! IDIOT!!!!!
h1. I have worked in the media since 1987. I have seen many ugly things that the public needs to be aware of. The main thing I want to get across, is you can't believe what you see on the news, be it local or national.
What I want to do is share my first hand experiences of what really happens behind the News. It's not what you would think. It's not professional like you may believe and it is for sure not to be taken as the truth.
The fact is, the NEWS is NOT there to inform you. What you say? Let me put it another way. The NEWS channels are NOT there to "keep you informed" or to enlighten you as to what is going on in the world around you. SO what is their job? Glad you asked. They are there to sell advertisements and to make you feel unstable and scared so you tune in again to be exposed to the same advertisements.
h1. That's right, the NEWS is in the ENTERTAINMENT business and NOT the INFORMATION business!
That shouldn't shock you at all. Because any mind control agency will tell you that "good news" does not sell, but "bad news" does.
It's all a mind control head game just to keep you in fear and to keep you coming back for more.
That said, let me lead you down the path to "behind the scenes" and what the "NEWS" really is.
I worked at KDRV TV in Medford Oregon in 1996. For ONE year. I emphasize "one" year because that is all I could take of the incompetent and unprofessional management that was in place when I was there. I got along with my co-workers, but Management was a whole other ballgame. They were not to be trusted.
The man that first hired me was the News Director whose name was Renard Maiuri. He seemed to be somewhat competent and was interested in getting the real story to the people. I found out that was not the case either. I was first hired as the weekend anchor and a man named Jim Hobbs was doing weekdays. They told me once Jim left, I would be the Sports Director and they would increase my salary too. Well, Once Jim left, they did make me the Sports Director, but didn't want to increase my pay. Liars!!!
I had to threaten to quit before they came through on their original promise. Yes, I know...no integrity at all at KDRV!
Well, not long after I was hired by Maiuri, he went on to other things and was replaced by a News Manager named Mark Hatfield. It looks like he's now the General Manager.
HATFIELD THE DISASTER!!!
Hatfield was a disaster! He was inexperienced, didn't understand news and had his own agenda in mind. He was not respected by the newsroom staff. He was childish and insecure and reminded me of a kid that was picked on all his life and never had any friends but now that he has been given the "power" over legitimate talent, that he was going to use it for his own benefit.
I even talked to other reporters before I left and we all agreed there is a huge problem with Hatfield and that played a part in who he did and did "not" get along with. That sure was my feeling. We know his "running buddy" Ben Becker was racist toward blacks as we already showed you. His statement on air toward African Americans actually got him suspended....(Once you go black you never go back). UNBELIEVABLE! That said... he and Hatfield were friends so they must think the same way.
HATFIELD THE CREEPY LOSER THAT COULDN'T BUY NEW CLOTHES
Mark Hatfield was unqualified. He was a physically creepy guy. He was short, fat, balding, unprofessional and wore the same clothes all the time. The joke at the newsroom was "what green pullover sweater was he going to wear this week?" He just didn't seem to have a clue when dealing with people. There was another joke around the newsroom that the only way he could get a women to talk to him was to bring them in for an interview. In short, (no pun intended, he was a joke)
So, you may wonder how people like Hatfield keep their jobs? Well, it's really very simple. He's the only one they can get. Someone who was a real professional from a large market would not want to live in a one horse town like Medford. So, that's the problem with getting good people in small markets. No one wants to go there, so they have to stick with and promote who they already have. Also, Chambers Communications who owned KDRV (at the time) isn't known for their free spending to hire good people.
Hatfield didn't understand news and didn't know a lead story if he fell over it. Just to give you an example, he didn't know the difference between "power lifting" and "bodybuilding". That should come as no surprise. The guy obviously never did anything athletically in his life. I packaged stories, for Medford's own "Power lifting", medalists. Male AND Female. I also packaged "Body Building", Male and Female medalists. BOTH lived in MEDFORD! But, incompetent Hatfield called me in and said, " No more weightlifting features!"
WHAT AN IDIOT! Medford had world class athletes in their own backyard for "Body Building" and "Power lifting" and Hatfield didn't know his story from his a$$ in the ground and thought is was all the same! Maybe HE was intimidated by people who were actually in shape because it made him feel like the loser he was!
Here is the female champion he didn't want a story about that lived in Medford: (BELOW)
h1. And here is the powerlifting champion (BELOW), (That lived in Medford), that Hatfield had no clue about and didn't want on our station: Maybe he doesn't know the difference between male and female?
h1. YES! Hatfield is clueless!!! HE DIDN'T WANT WORLD CLASS BODYBUILDING/POWERLIFTING ATHLETES ON KDRV BECAUSE HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT SPORTS!!! EVEN THOUGH TWO OF THEM LIVED IN OUR TOWN!!! HATFIELD WAS A CLUELESS CLOWN!
BEN BECKER: HATFIELD'S GROSS NOSE PICKING "BOY"
Shortly after I arrived to be the Sports Director at KDRV, Mark Hatfield, in his inexperience, decided to hire a fledgling named BEN BECKER to do weekends sports. Becker was a short, nerd, wannabe who never played sports in his life and had a habit of "Picking his nose" between breaks! YIKES!!!
HATFIELD SUPPORTING RACISM
Well, racist Becker was a disaster too! He was the most immature, incompetent weekend anchor I have ever seen! As a matter of fact, the complaints to KDRV came in by the dozens from irritated viewers! I witnessed this first hand!!! But Mark Hatfield hid them and didn't let anyone see them. He was SUPPOSED to forward them to the GM. But remember, Hatfield was/and is, a lying piece of crap that had his own agenda!__
But Hatfield was dishonest and a sneaky liar with his own agenda.
Mark Hatfield and Ben Becker were two nerds that bonded because they were losers and outcasts in life. They had Professional Wrestling in common. And they later even had highlights of professional wrestling on his sportscasts! YIKES! What legitimate sportscast talks professional wrestling? No wonder these two "liked" each other! What kind of grown men sit around and watch a fake sport that is full of same sex story lines?
h1. YES, THE WRESTLING HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA WITH BECKER AND HATFIELD! JUST WHAT I SUSPECTED!
Let's be real, who makes an idol of "Gold dust" (homosexual) wrestler besides these two "wannabees" Becker and Hatfield? (BELOW) and (ABOVE).
h1. HERE'S MORE PROFESSIONAL WRESTING NONSENSE WITH HOMOSEXUAL UNDERTONES THAT HATFIELD WAS OKAY WITH: ARE YOU SEEING THE AGENDA HERE?
Are you starting to figure out this now?
Later, Becker talked the incompetent Hatfield into to a segment called "Ben's Big Fish." WHAT? Catching fish will get ratings? Apparently, Hatfield was okay with this nonsense? Ben's Big Fish? Here, these two are again promoting a same sex agenda.
Becker was so incompetent that at the next station he went to, that he actually was talking about black golf balls and said "Once you go black, you never go back." This is what we were talking about earlier in this article. UNREAL THAT YOU CAN BE THIS STUPID!!! Well, just the fact that he was running buddies with Becker who makes this outrageous racist comment on the air should tell you something. Check it out below:
h1. "ONCE YOU GO BLACK, YOU NEVER GO BACK" From idiot racist Becker. That line makes the Newscast.
When the student newspaper at a recent convention of the National Association of Black Journalists decided to start a column of outrageous quotes, it titled the feature, "Oh, No, He Didn't!"
Columnist Jose Lambiet came up with a likely candidate Sunday in Florida's Palm Beach Post.
"Since it seems more people saw WPTV-News Channel 5 sports director Ben Becker's apology than those who saw his on-the-air racial and sexual comment," Lambiet began, "here is what he said:
"'Once you go black, you never go back!'
Yikes! Becker is either stupid, or a racist...one way or the other, why is he on TV? Any other alternatives here?
"Becker was winding down his sports segment on the 6 p.m. show Thursday with news about a Nike golf ball the pros have started using. The new ball is black. He made the offending comment while signing off. Yikes!" Lambiet continued.
"The ugly-nose-picking sportscaster, who grossed out many, who has been with the station since 2001, was back on at 11 p.m. He apologized for his 'inappropriate and insensitive' words.
"He didn't want to be interviewed, but his boss, news director Peter Roghaar, told Page, the matter was addressed internally. He didn't say how.
"'We received four complaints about it between the 6 and 11 news,' he said. 'He was just trying to make a joke.'"__
Of course he was! A joke from a bigoted racist!!
It's no doubt small consolation to Becker, but he isn't the first to use the line in a N-rated venue. Keep in mind, Mark Hatfield hired this guy!!!
MORE INCOMPETENT ISSUES FROM MARK HATFIELD:
When I worked at KDRV TV in 1996, I immediately knew Mark Hatfield was going to be the worst News Manager I have ever had. I was right! One of the anchor/reporters named Geoffery Riley (who was actually a very good reporter) had his story stained by Hatfield.
h1. Riley was attacked by indigents using shovels in one of his interviews. Hatfield called in the police. The police came to the station to try and find those involved in the attack and "genius" Mark Hatfield, wearing his famed green sweater wanted to know if they had "A WARRANT" to get the tapes! WHAT! The police are trying to help and the News Manager wants them to get a warrant? And beside that, Hatfield was the one who called them in to help in the first place! Like I said, more incompetence. THAT'S ON THE LEVEL MORE OF INCOMPETENCE BUT MORE ON THE LEVEL OF LACK OF INTELLIGENCE!!!!
But the one that takes the cake is what we talked about earlier. Mark Hatfield telling to one of his reporters in a closed door meeting that he's a virgin. He's probably STILL a virgin after what I've revealed!
LET ME SAY THIS AGAIN!!!!
For what ever idiotic reason, Hatfield revealed to her that he was "a virgin." Once again, What kind of an idiot, that is involved in news, tells one of his reporters that kind of intimate information and doesn't think she will tell EVERYONE? AN INCOMPETENT FOOL, THAT'S WHO!!!
Once again. these are all things I witnessed! And there is more. For now, I want to leave KDRV TV Medford and talk about more reasons you absolutely can not trust local or national news! Let's look at the comments below! NOT ONE POSITIVE COMMENT ABOUT MARK HATFIELD! LET THAT SINK IN!!!
OTHER REASONS TO NEVER TRUST THE LYING MEDIA
When I worked for Westwood One and they asked to do an interview with Patrick Ireland. He was one of the kids that climbed out of the window during the Columbine shootings in Littleton, Colorado in 1999.
I was one of about 100 journalists at Craig Hospital that afternoon. The media were waiting on Patrick Ireland. His doctors informed the press to not ask about the events of that day (at Columbine), but to only ask about how his rehab is going.
That said, When Patrick came out to talk to the media, the first questions were; "DID YOU KNOW THE GUNMEN?" "WHAT WAS KLEBOLD AND HARRIS LIKE?" "DID YOU KNOW THEM BEFORE THAT DAY?"
SO, since it was so obvious that the "press" were not going to honor Patrick Ireland's Doctor and not ask about the events of that day, Ireland simply said...."You know what, I didn't see anything." So, the Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post BOTH said "Patrick Ireland Does not remember the events of that day." BULL!!!!! That is NOT what happened! Patrick Ireland was so annoyed that the press asked him questions that he specifically didn't want them to ask, he just want to shut them all down! ONCE AGAIN, I WITNESSED THIS FIRST HAND!!!!
You can not trust the media!!
Okay, another time, I was asked to do the 1-800 number for MCI for the INTERNATIONAL GOLF TOURNAMENT at Castle Pines Colorado. So I was at the press tent for all four days. Let me tell you what happened that the media will not.
Jack Nicklaus was in the hunt in 1988. After his round, the media caught with him in the press tent. Before the media even said anything, Jack, who was sitting in "God's" Chair (Everyone who has been at the International will know what this is), Jack said.."First, I'm sick of the press misquoting me, everytime I come to Denver this happens and you get some one mad at me. (In this case Jack Vickers who funded the tournament). Nicklaus then said "And I'm sick of it."
The press tried to apologize, but it was too late....What I am trying to get across, is this happened and not a word was ever told to YOU about it....And it continues to this day with other stories!!!

WHY YOU CAN'T TRUST THE MEDIA
The reason for this article: This website is about exposing corruption in all aspects of the media. Throughout my entire career I had nothing but positive experiences in my journey in the radio and TV media with KDRV Channel 12 being the lone black mark. It was such a bizarre world of twisted lies and astoundingly idiotic leadership with one incompetent Mark Hatfield at the helm, I felt like it needed to be addressed on an international level for the world to see. The person who hired me was named Renard Maiuri. Now, I didn't get to work with him for too long because shortly after I was hired he resigned and the stooge of the hour named Mark Hatfield took the helm.**__
Hatfield was a disaster! He was a no talent loser that didn't have a clue how to run a newsroom and much less manage people. Hatfield was as unprofessional as they come and was so backward with people it seemed like he had severe mental and psychological disabilities along with inappropriate behavior problems as I will document below. One bizarre issue was telling a reporter he was a virgin. I mean, who does something that bizarre in any workplace? This is exactly the kind of behavior as to why Hatfield is still in such a small market at such an advanced age. This P.O.S. even once tried to threaten me by "not having my contract renewed".
Well, that would have been a fun lawsuit for me that I would have won, but it just wasn't worth it in the end to stay there and deal with Hatfield and his ugly mug everyday. Hopefully, this report will awake people as to how television really works in small markets and will expose the corruption in stations like KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon. The fact is, I know that losers like Hatfield have given people bad references just because they are not his cup of slimy tea. I suspect he may have done that with me at least once. But, I think it's important to expose who the real scum of the earth is and no one stinks higher than Hatfield and I think it's important that young aspiring journalists not get caught up with lying, two faced creeps like Mark Hatfield
Isn't it ironic? But we can continually monitor this website article and who was on it, where they came form, how long they were on...etc. We constantly see hits from Medford or Central point Oregon. Well, let it be known, we will always be posting updates from people and former employees who can tell the truth about what a failure this Hatfield dude was. The most ironic thing is I have been in touch with other reporters from my time at KDRV who think as low of Hatfield as I do. (BELOW) Here is a sample of hits from Central Point checking in on what we have to say. Well let us assure you...it isn't good for Mark Hatfield. It would have been better for him to be an honest, truthful mentor, rather than a lying, two faced scum of the earth which he is that we are exposing now. But it was his choice to take the low road, not ours.
Hatfield's favorite phrase was "I don't like surprises". WELL GUESS WHAT "SELF PROCLAIMED VIRGIN BOY HATFIELD", "SURPRISE"!!!!THE WHOLE INTERNET WORLD AND OVER 20,000 HITS HERE KNOW NOW WHAT A LYING SACK OF SH*T AND LYING PIECE OF GARBAGE LOSER YOU ARE!!!! DO NOT EVER WORK FOR MARK HATFIELD AT NEWSWATCH 12 KDRV TV IN OREGON! HE IS A LYING, TWO FACED HYPOCRITICAL PIECE OF CRAP LOSER THAT DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE!
Hatfield is also a "Gaslighter." What's a Gaslighter you ask? It's when he, (HATFIELD), will try to make you think you're doing a bad job when in fact you are doing a good job, but he has his own hidden agenda in mind in wanting someone else to have your job. Basically, "Gaslighters" want to play the "victim" and want to make you think there is something wrong with you, when in fact, THEY are the instigators who are lying, manipulating pieces of crap!!!. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! There's a reason Hatfield can't get out of a small market and get a real job in a larger market that actually pays some money. Why do you think he gets kicked out of other places and ends back here? Short answer: BECAUSE HATFIELD IS A NO TALENT, TWO FACED, LYING LOSER!!!
Wow! Look at the globe below this article and the hits we are getting in the red! The word is getting out about lying scumbags like Mark Hatfield (ABOVE) in the media!!! Look at the comments where people are actually seeing this and having an input at the end of this article! Let's keep it going! The more the truth gets out, the more people like Mark Hatfield will cease to exist in any kind of management position in the mainstream media!! Social Media can be a great tool!!
DOES MARK HATFIELD HAVE SEVERE PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES? DOES HE NEED PROFESSIONAL MENTAL HELP?
If you want to e-mail Hatfield: You can do that at: markhatfield@kdrv.com. Let him know what a disgusting human he is just like the comments below:
markhatfield@kdrv.com

1090 Knutson Ave. - Medford OR 97504
Phone: 541-773-1212
DOES HATFIELD HAVE MENTAL DISORDERS THAT MAY HAVE BEEN COVERED UP? "INAPPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR" IS THE BEST PHRASE I CAN COME UP WITH WHEN LOOKING BACK ON THIS SCUMBAG! If you are a new reporter considering working at KDRV, have you ever considered why this lying, two faced scumbag (Hatfield) is still working at a small market with no way out, 20 years after I have exposed him? THINK ABOUT IT!!! Name ONE person who moved to a major market after working with Hatfield..JUST ONE! You can't! Okay, now name one New Director that has moved on to a Major Market from KDRV in 20 years? None? Right Again!! 20 years should tell you something about why dirtbag Hatfield is where he is and why you don't want to be there!!!
The more I look into this kind of incompetence that Hatfield exhibited while I was there, he was so unprofessional and clueless, that I really started to wonder if he was suffering from some kind of psychological/mental illness disorder that Chambers Communication owners knew about and covered up. Because in the end, It's hard for me to fathom that someone (Like Hatfield), can be this clueless, racist, uneducated and ignorant as he is. On top of that, to wear the same clothes constantly..."green pullover" (Is it washed?), to promote homosexual professional wrestling and (on top of that), admit to a co-worker that he is a virgin! REALLY! WHO TELLS A REPORTER HE IS A VIRGIN? I'll tell you, someone who is mentally unstable! Just my opinion, come to your own conclusion on the mental stability of someone who does this!!!
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR THIS!!!! LET'S LOOK AT PROOF THAT MARK HATFIELD IS AN INCOMPETENT, MENTALLY CHALLENGED LOSER THAT HAS NO BUSINESS IN THE MEDIA! THE "COMMENTS" BELOW AND OUR ARTICLE WILL PROVE THIS!!!
RULE NUMBER 1
DO NOT MAKE ENEMIES IN THIS BUSINESS!! MARK HATFIELD OF KDRV IS NOTHING BUT A BALD, FAT, LOSER. HE'S AN IGNORANT JOKE WHO THINKS PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IS A SPORT WHO HAS AN UGLY OVERBITE (YIKES! BALD AND UGLY).
In this report, I want to expose a liar and unqualified person that I had the misfortune to work for at KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon. MARK HATFIELD. I want to expose the most unprofessional, two faced, lying scum, that I have ever come across in my career. HERE IS MY STORY: Mark Hatfield is too inexperienced and incompetent to be named the "NEWS MANAGER" at KDRV. Mark Hatfield is a liar extraordinaire and I want to expose anything that will keep new potential hires from the lies that I had to deal with from management at KDRV!!!
Luke 12:2-3
“But there is nothing covered up that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known. “Accordingly, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in the inner rooms will be proclaimed upon the housetops".
YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW!
BUT, that said, we can now present the truth about the media and KDRV and the corrupt management that I experienced FIRSTHAND!!!!!
Let's keep hits to coming to this website as we get thousands everyday!!!!! Don't let the mainstream media and lying, idiotic people like Mark Hatfield get in positions like this! Even in small markets!
If you are a new hire prospect at KDRV, click here!!!"KDRV NEWS DIRECTOR MARK HATFIELD IS A LYING STOOGE THAT IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED Let's look at all the internet sources on Hatfield that bring us back here and his lying tactics!
LET'S LOOK AT KDRV AND TWO FACED, LYING MARK HATFIELD! DO NOT WORK FOR THIS MAN!!!!!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!! If you are a new hire thinking about working at KDRV, e-mail us and we will send you e-mails of a half-dozen people who have worked for this loser who will tell you not to work for this lying, two faced sorry dude in person....Once again, don't take our word for it, let us send you to numerous bad references for Hatfield....as if the comments below don't convince you!!
No two ways about it, Mark Hatfield who is the GM of KDRV in Medford is a lying, two-faced human being that you would be sorry you worked with!! We will prove that here. Hatfield is a, lying, manipulative loser who you will regret working with!!! All you need to do is look at the comments below this article to see who this low life, loser is all about!
"TELL ME A STORY!" And "NO GOOD!"
That was Hatfield's "go to" line whenever he thought he was critiquing someone's News story. Yea, but what does that really mean? NOTHING! Because Hatfield doesn't know the difference between what is good and what is bad. But that is how he dealt with people. With one lined canned instructions because in the end, he wasn't capable of any meaningful dialogue that would help anyone because he's an incompetent fool. What kind of "story" did he want? Professional Wrestling stories? Big Fish stories? Another term he would use when people were doing the best they could is in his all "cockiness" he would say "This is no good!"
To that I say BULL!!!! The only "NO GOOD" person in that meeting was lying, hypocritical, two faced, incompetent, Mark Hatfield!!!!! Well, Let me tell our readers "A TRUE STORY" about what I had to put up with to work with this moron for a year and it isn't pretty. Hopefully any new hires will read this before accepting a job at KDRV.
Here's the deal. People who have worked in the media, radio or TV are being subject to the people they work for to give them a positive reference or a negative one based on how they are perceived by the local News Directors or News Managers. BUT, what if you have a News Director who has his own agenda in mind?
What if the management you work for is "racist", "sexist" or something else? What do you do then? Well, I want to break that habit here and expose what I went through working for the most incompetent management with an agenda I have ever seen or worked with! That management is from KDRV in Medford, Oregon. I will provide PROOF of my allegations below. If you are a new reporter looking for advancement, DO NOT accept a job under Mark Hatfield! HE IS A HYPOCRITICAL, LYING DISASTER!!!
There are very few people that I don't get along with in life. I have had success in every professional job I have had in the media. Almost everyone are still friends of mine. The lone exception is when I worked for KDRV, when the News Manager (Hatfield), was not only the worst person I have come in contact with as a person, but by far the worst person I have dealt with as a professional. Mark Hatfield ( I have to say) is someone who is the most untrustworthy, deceitful, lying, despicable person I have ever dealt with on any level.
MARK HATFIELD IS A LYING, STOOGE!!!!!! YOUNG REPORTERS! DO NOT WORK WITH THIS MAN!!!!
If you are a hopeful reporter that has any potential hire at KDRV, hopefully you will read this with the comments below and not allow this lying poor excuse for a News Manager named Mark Hatfield have anything to do with new hires. IF YOU WORK WITH HIM, YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!!
Just remember, just because this lying, loser Hatfield, gives you an interview, doesn't mean this a good place to work. LET ME SAVE YOU THE TROUBLE!!!! DO NOT WORK FOR KDRV!!!!!
MY STORY REPORTED BY MY FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE IS NOW HERE!!!!!
Before I start this entire report. I want to tell everyone that in 1996, I was offered a job at KDRV in Medford Oregon. I took the job thinking it would further my career and thought it would be a good place to work. I COULDN'T HAVE LOOKED AT THIS MORE WRONG!!! After a certain set of circumstances, I became the Sports Director with incompetent Mark Hatfield at the helm, it was apparent I had been lied to about this whole charade.
NEWSWATCH 12? WHAT ARE THEY WATCHING?
At one time my parents came up to visit and watched this station and I was embarrassed for them at what they looked at. They looked at an incompetent protege' of Mark Hatfield named Ben Becker make a complete fool of himself promoting Professional Wrestling and with another segment called "Ben's Big Fish" along the same story line.
PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING IS A SPORT? OR SOMETHING ELSE? Let's take a look at this video where you can see Professional Wrestling has a history of inappropriate sexual harassment even from it's top stars. Hatfield must know this and if he didn't, it's just more proof what an incompetent person he is.
As you watch this video (above), remember: THIS IS THE SPORT HATFIELD WAS OPENLY PROMOTING!!! ON A MAINSTREAM TV STATION NO LESS! Let's listen to Rowdy Roddy Piper admit he was molested by numerous wrestlers! Keep in mind! THIS IS WHAT HATFIELD WAS PROMOTING ON KDRV!!!!!
We know there have been numerous lawsuits with the WWE and WWF alleging homosexual abuse which includes Pat Patterson and Rowdy Roddy Piper. Even though I was the Sports Director, Hatfield and his "little buddy" didn't consult me at all with this promotion of this charade aired at KDRV, and if they had I would have struck it down! I could only handle this station for a year (professionally and ethically) So, let's look at why this happened and why I would not suggest anyone work for Mark Hatfield and his lying manipulative agenda where I believe racism is a big part of this!!! READ ON!!!
HERE IS MORE DOCUMENTED PROOF THAT WRESTLING HAS SO MANY PROBLEMS WITH SEXUAL HARASSMENT AND HOMOSEXUAL LAWSUITS!!! HOW CAN ANYONE TAKE MARK HATFIELD SERIOUSLY AS HE OPENLY PROMOTED THIS GARBAGE!!!!
MARK HATFIELD, THE NO GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY.... BALD WANNABE HATFIELD WAS ALL of these.
If you are a new reporter and have been offered a job a KDRV in Medford, Oregon, read this report before you ever work under Mark Hatfield. He is a disgusting, lying loser that has no people skills and is as unprofessional as they come.
RACISTS COMMENTS FROM HATFIELD'S "BOY" (BECKER)
See below with his protege' Ben Becker, talking about "Once you go black, you never go back" in this case talking about golf balls. BUT! Was he (Becker), really talking about golf balls and was there a deeper meaning between these two and all the so called "news stories" that they presented that had to do with "Race" and a "Homosexual agenda?"
We will leave the final opinion to the reader, but let me present to you FACTS about KDRV when I was employed there in 1996. If you doubt this, just Google the employees at KDRV and see how many minorities you see. IF YOU ARE A NEWS REPORTER THINKING OF BEING HIRED BY KDRV, you need to be informed before you work for this lying creepy dude!
NOTE: THIS MAN (HATFIELD), IS UNQUALIFIED TO JUDGE ANYONE'S TALENT OR BE IN ANY KIND OF POSITION OF LEADERSHIP. IF I WORKED AT THIS STATION TODAY, I WOULD NEVER PUT UP WITH HIM. I WOULD CONTACT OWNERSHIP AND TELL THEM TO BUY ME OUT OF MY CONTRACT OR PUT SOMEONE ELSE IN THIS POSITION FOR ME TO ANSWER TO AS I WOULD REFUSE TO ANSWER TO ANYONE AS BLATANTLY IGNORANT AND INCOMPETENT AS HATFIELD!
MORE B.S.WITH MARK HATFIELD AND KDRV
In short, my agenda is to expose the mainstream media (local) and their lies. I saw this first hand when I worked as the Sports Director at KDRV in Medford, Oregon. First, I want to point out the lies I encountered first hand at this affiliate.
THIS REPORT IS "THE TRUTH" AS I HAVE WITNESSED AS A FORMER EMPLOYEE OF KDRV IN 1996.
CORRUPT MANAGEMENT AT KDRV
I was hired as a reporter/anchor for KDRV and this is my "report" of the corrupt management of the worst corporation I have ever worked with. Remember, the truth is the best defense! I think it's important that new potential hires know about this corrupt organization so they don't go the same route I did, which was to quit your job and move to Oregon and KDRV and deal with the same corrupt, lying management I had to deal with.
Remember, there is no law against having an opinion!__
I foolishly believed this would be a good career move to come to this place and I was not only lied to about the money I would make, but about the whole environment I would work with and that includes Chambers Communication at the time. With that said, I want to point out the comments below from people who have first hand knowledge about the unethical happenings at KDRV that verify what is being said here! I regret ever moving from Denver to take this job as it cost me to make this move to an organization that did nothing but lie to me and make empty promises with the lying scumbag MARK HATFIELD at the helm!!!!
WELL, WELL, WELL, LOOKS LIKE SCUMBAG HATFIELD WANTS TO BE TOLD A "STORY". WELL HERE IS MY STORY!!!
Just look at the smug "smirk" on his face that professionals who evaluate liars like Hatfield call "Duping Delight". Which is common with people (Like Hatfield) who know they are lying and take delight in fooling you! Thank goodness there are thousands of people who read this site and can see what unethical people like Hatfield are all about! Just scroll below to see the globe and see how many people are waking up to these liars like Mark Hatfield. PASS THIS ON!!!!
This is why you will NOT get the real news from local TV. Throughout my years of working in the mainstream media. I can tell you first hand that it isn't "news" at all. It's propaganda to get you hooked so they can bombard you with advertisements. And it doesn't just happen on the national level, it starts at the local level. Let's look at some instances that show what an incompetent fool Mark Hatfield is.
WHERE IS MEDFORD'S CHAD COTA FROM? HATFIELD DOESN'T KNOW!
First example of incompetence of Hatfield: WHERE IS AN ATHLETE FROM?
Everyone in year one journalism knows that when you identify "where" an athlete is from, you talk about where they CURRENTLY LIVE. Everyone knows that. Tiger Woods was not born in Jupiter, Fl., but that's where he is from.
Sonny Liston (The heavyweight champ in 1964), was from, Denver, Co., even though he wasn't born there. I did an interview with Oregon's Chad Cota who was drafted by the Carolina Panthers. He lived in Medford, Oregon, which I identified him as being from. Well, dumbass Hatfield called me into his office and tried to convince me that Cota should be listed from (Ashland) even though he didn't live there. And in his stupid arrogance tried to tell me that I, (not being from Oregon) was at a "disadvantage" because he (Hatfield) "knew too much".
Let's look at that idiotic statement. If he was so knowledgeable, he should be an "advantage" to me. But he looked at it as the opposite. Why? Because he's an incompetent, idiot who can't manage people and can't figure out simple journalistic facts like "where is athlete is FROM". I can't stress enough what a moron this guy is and can't fathom why he still has a job. Again, from my perspective, I can only come up with him being a POS racist as to why he could possibly be this stupid on simple news stories.
No question the worst job I have ever had was when I was the Sports Director at KDRV TV in Medford, Oregon when a highly unqualified, incompetent, and in my opinion racist, man named Mark Hatfield was named the News Manager essentially by default. I went to work for the most unethical, incompetent management I ever had to work with at KDRV. Basically, one year of my professional life was lost working for this unprofessional management at KDRV and Mark Hatfield was the lying stooge of the hour that I had to deal with.
RACIST HISTORY IN OREGON
Little Known Black History Fact: Oregon’s Racist Past which would influence KDRV.
The Pacific Northwest is often seen as a region where racial tolerance might be expected and that opportunities for all Americans might be available. However, Black residents of the “Beaver State” say Oregon is hiding a racist past and that examples of said racism exists even today.
In 1859, Oregon became a state and issued a statewide law that no "Black person", not even a mixed person, could live there. It was the only free state in the Union that had such a law forbidding Blacks from living there. Naturally, this law was defied and an example of this occurred in the progressive and Eco-friendly city of Portland.
Black businessmen W.D. Allen and George Moore opened the Golden West Hotel in 1906, and it became the center of Black prominence and movement in the state. The hotel was successful, but buckled under the weight of The Great Depression and shuttered its doors in 1931. It has since been reopened as a historic reminder of Portland’s rich Black past.
Also telling was that the Ku Klux Klan opened a chapter in the state in 1921, and the state law barring Blacks was still in effect. The law was removed from the books in 1926 but the roots of racism ran far too deeply.
Current residents say that Oregon’s racism persists today although it’s a lot more covert. Some say that housing discrimination, a dearth of Black people being hired for work, and racial profiling are hallmarks of the actions those residents have endured over the years. There are even records of Black Oregon homeowners being forced from their homes and not given new opportunities to own again.
A 2015 documentary, “Lift Ev’ry Voice,” focuses heavily on Portland’s Black history and some of the barriers faced by those within the community.

NASTY E-MAILS FOR LOSER HATFIELD
Through my contacts, I understand that at times the station gets nasty e-mails through it's tip line from former employees complaining about this man. From my perspective, it may be just about anybody because he no doubt made numerous enemies in his time. While I can't speak about who or why that is happening, I can surely give you my first hand experience and knowledge about my stay there which was some 20 years ago and shed some light about why so many people can't stand Mark Hatfield.
One thing losers like Hatfield don't understand is that he doesn't evaluate people that worked at KDRV, in the long run...... "WE EVALUATE HIM!!!" Which is happening now to a worldwide audience. By the way, why is Hatfield smiling? Doesn't he realize almost everyone that has worked with this moron has bad things to say about him? Oh, maybe a frown should be appropriate...__
Looks like four eyes is starting to look like a middle aged lady with no hair with bag lady eyes, not only that, but he looks like he's on the donuts, ice cream and beer health diet..
In short, Mark Hatfield, is an untrustworthy, lying, manipulative loser. DO NOT TRUST OR WORK FOR THIS MAN!!!!!
WHAT TO DO IF YOU WORK FOR MARK HATFIELD AND YOU THINK HE HAS UNFAIRLY PICKED YOU OUT AND MADE YOUR JOB MORE DIFFICULT THAN IT SHOULD BE OR IF YOU THINK HE IS INTENTIONALLY SABOTAGING YOU. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I WAS EMPLOYED AT KDRV...
If you work for Mark Hatfield and you feel like you are unfairly being singled out for no apparent reason and you are being criticized when you know you are doing a good job or you feel he is intentionally making your job more difficult than it needs to be, or if you feel like you are being discriminated against (which more people than just I thought during my time at KDRV).

WHY YOU DON'T WANT TO WORK FOR LIAR MARK HATFIELD
Mark Hatfield, 51, (55 now) News Director at KDRV for years. He's a Seattle native with a degree from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma and TV experience in Wenatchee, Spokane and Seattle and some public relations background. Trust us! Hatfield is a lying, poor excuse for a human being that shouldn't be a mentor for young reporters!! He has his own agenda, he's a liar, he's insecure, he's a horrible human being and hopefully, any new reporter will not be suckered in by this loser who cares about no one but his own selfish agenda...
The homosexual professional wrestling angle (Which KDRV SUPPORTED) and idiotic agenda for Hatfield will be exposed below. It's been said from one reporter in my presence that they don't understand why Hatfield was in bed, (figuratively I'm guessing but who really knows), with his fellow (wrestling buddy Ben Becker) and I think we can figure that out why when you read on. (I MADE NO ACCUSATIONS HERE, I"M JUST SAYING.....WTF!) You figure this out!! Especially when you see what Hatfield's buddy, Becker once said on the air (and we kid you not) "If you go black, you never go back."
Hatfield is not presentable for clients who want professionals. He has no knack for issues, he doesn't know "NEWS" and what the viewers want. He has no "people" skills. He just has no value in the world of television for young talent to learn. In short, Hatfield has no value for an up and coming reporter. If he doesn't like you, which is true for any one with talent, he will try to black ball you! Because he's a jealous, no talent loser who does not want people to advance because he can't!!!! TAKE MY ADVICE! IF YOU HAVE A FIRST JOB! DO NOT WORK AT KDRV!!!
There was a young female reporter/anchor when I was employed at KDRV who was a good talent. For some reason Hatfield didn't like her (Maybe he hit on her and she wanted no part of it). Anyway, she called me to ask her to be a reference. I thought she was great and I was a good reference for her. Not too long after that, a News Director in Duluth Minnesota called me and asked what I thought of her. Of course I gave her glowing references and she actually got the job!!!! Something that wouldn't have happened if he called liar Hatfield! Not doubt, he would have given her a bad reference because she turned down is advances!! (That's exactly what she told me), I was told this by her first hand!! Another bizarre comment made from Hatfield's News Anchor in front of all of us (Who is still employed by KDRV, by the way), was "Mark Hatfield probably irons is underwear!" I have no idea what this means...I don't know. But I find it curious all these statements were circulating in the newsroom about this toxic moron Mark Hatfield!!
IF YOU ARE A YOUNG REPORTER LOOKING FOR YOUR FIRST JOB, YOU DO NOT WANT TO WORK FOR THIS MAN! HE HAS BEEN KNOWN TO GIVE BAD REFERENCES WHEN YOU GO ON TO TRY TO GET YOUR NEXT JOB. GIVING A BAD REFERENCE JUST BECAUSE HATFIELD MAY NOT PERSONALLY LIKE SOMEONE IS UNETHICAL AND ILLEGAL! THE FACT IS, THE PERSON WHO HATFIELD BLACK BALLED MAY DEVELOP INTO A GOOD REPORTER SOMEWHERE ELSE BY WORKING WITH A REAL NEWS DIRECTOR.

Hatfield looks like he's been run from of a lot of places that include:
Eugene, or.
Shelton, Wa.
Bellevue, wa.
Santa Maria, ca.
New Castle, wa.
Omaha, Ne.
Kirkland, wa.
Pismo Beach, ca.
Inglemoor H.S. (No doubt he was the unpopular fat kid who got picked on)
We are not sure what this loser did before he was involved in the media, but he may have been involved with organizations like Butler Imports and Galbraith laboratories. Not sure if he was or wasn't, but it sure tells you he has no talent or background as being a leader in the media...
Hummm! If he was valuable, why has he been kicked out of so many places?
Hatfield also has had problems with not following the "Legal Issues" which you would think someone as visible in the community as Hatfield is, wouldn't have. If you doubt, look this up!

COPIED HATFIELD LEGAL ISSUES:
When I first walked into the newsroom, I noticed that News Manager Mark Hatfield sported a "Hitler Mustache" (BELOW). You'll see him below. Hummm, wonder why he had a "Hitler" mustache? Racist? YES! Read on and I think you will see. There is nothing positive I can say about Hatfield. Other than he is a creepy, lying, untrustworthy person with absolutely zero integrity. But keep in mind, it's not just him. There are clones like him all over America that have the same unethical habits and that eventually comes out in the product you see on TV.
HATFIELD THE VIRGIN!!!! NOT SURPRISING!
Here's the one that takes the cake. Mark Hatfield was talking to one of his reporters in a closed door meeting.
And for what ever idiotic reason, he revealed to her that he was "a virgin." OH MY!!!! What kind of an intellectually challenged individual, that is involved in news, tells one of his reporters that kind of intimate information and doesn't think she will tell EVERYONE!! HEY! HATFIELD DUMASS! Let's let the fact that you go "solo act" keep that between you and your therapist! Hatfield telling someone he is a virgin is the most idiotic thing any human being I know in the News Media has ever done to embarrass themselves, and this poor excuse for a manager actually did this!!
HATFIELD THE VIRGIN? YEP! BY HIS OWN ADMISSION:
Hey, if you think this is bizarre! READ ON!
What kind of a "News Manager/GM" sports a "Hitler Mustache" especially when his protege, Ben Becker, Makes the most "racist" statement on the air of "Once you go black, you never go back" Unless Hatfield is supportive of that kind of bigotry?
I like the caption on this below:
What I want to do is share my first hand experiences of what really happens behind the News. It's not what you would think. It's not professional like you may believe and it is for sure not to be taken as the truth.
The fact is, the NEWS is NOT there to inform you. What you say? Let me put it another way. The NEWS channels are NOT there to "keep you informed" or to enlighten you as to what is going on in the world around you. SO what is their job? Glad you asked. They are there to sell advertisements and to make you feel unstable and scared so you tune in again to be exposed to the same advertisements.
That shouldn't shock you at all. Because any mind control agency will tell you that "good news" does not sell, but "bad news" does.
It's all a mind control head game just to keep you in fear and to keep you coming back for more.
That said, let me lead you down the path to "behind the scenes" and what the "NEWS" really is.
I worked at KDRV TV in Medford Oregon in 1996. For ONE year. I emphasize "one" year because that is all I could take of the incompetent and unprofessional management that was in place when I was there. I got along with my co-workers, but Management was a whole other ballgame. They were not to be trusted.
The man that first hired me was the News Director whose name was Renard Maiuri. He seemed to be somewhat competent and was interested in getting the real story to the people. I found out that was not the case either. I was first hired as the weekend anchor and a man named Jim Hobbs was doing weekdays. They told me once Jim left, I would be the Sports Director and they would increase my salary too. Well, Once Jim left, they did make me the Sports Director, but didn't want to increase my pay. Liars!!!
I had to threaten to quit before they came through on their original promise. Yes, I know...no integrity at all at KDRV!
Well, not long after I was hired by Maiuri, he went on to other things and was replaced by a News Manager named Mark Hatfield. It looks like he's now the General Manager.
HATFIELD THE DISASTER!!!
Hatfield was a disaster! He was inexperienced, didn't understand news and had his own agenda in mind. He was not respected by the newsroom staff. He was childish and insecure and reminded me of a kid that was picked on all his life and never had any friends but now that he has been given the "power" over legitimate talent, that he was going to use it for his own benefit.
I even talked to other reporters before I left and we all agreed there is a huge problem with Hatfield and that played a part in who he did and did "not" get along with. That sure was my feeling. We know his "running buddy" Ben Becker was racist toward blacks as we already showed you. His statement on air toward African Americans actually got him suspended....(Once you go black you never go back). UNBELIEVABLE! That said... he and Hatfield were friends so they must think the same way.
HATFIELD THE CREEPY LOSER THAT COULDN'T BUY NEW CLOTHES
Mark Hatfield was unqualified. He was a physically creepy guy. He was short, fat, balding, unprofessional and wore the same clothes all the time. The joke at the newsroom was "what green pullover sweater was he going to wear this week?" He just didn't seem to have a clue when dealing with people. There was another joke around the newsroom that the only way he could get a women to talk to him was to bring them in for an interview. In short, (no pun intended, he was a joke)
So, you may wonder how people like Hatfield keep their jobs? Well, it's really very simple. He's the only one they can get. Someone who was a real professional from a large market would not want to live in a one horse town like Medford. So, that's the problem with getting good people in small markets. No one wants to go there, so they have to stick with and promote who they already have. Also, Chambers Communications who owned KDRV (at the time) isn't known for their free spending to hire good people.
Hatfield didn't understand news and didn't know a lead story if he fell over it. Just to give you an example, he didn't know the difference between "power lifting" and "bodybuilding". That should come as no surprise. The guy obviously never did anything athletically in his life. I packaged stories, for Medford's own "Power lifting", medalists. Male AND Female. I also packaged "Body Building", Male and Female medalists. BOTH lived in MEDFORD! But, incompetent Hatfield called me in and said, " No more weightlifting features!"
WHAT AN IDIOT! Medford had world class athletes in their own backyard for "Body Building" and "Power lifting" and Hatfield didn't know his story from his a$$ in the ground and thought is was all the same! Maybe HE was intimidated by people who were actually in shape because it made him feel like the loser he was!
Here is the female champion he didn't want a story about that lived in Medford: (BELOW)
BEN BECKER: HATFIELD'S GROSS NOSE PICKING "BOY"
Shortly after I arrived to be the Sports Director at KDRV, Mark Hatfield, in his inexperience, decided to hire a fledgling named BEN BECKER to do weekends sports. Becker was a short, nerd, wannabe who never played sports in his life and had a habit of "Picking his nose" between breaks! YIKES!!!
HATFIELD SUPPORTING RACISM
Well, racist Becker was a disaster too! He was the most immature, incompetent weekend anchor I have ever seen! As a matter of fact, the complaints to KDRV came in by the dozens from irritated viewers! I witnessed this first hand!!! But Mark Hatfield hid them and didn't let anyone see them. He was SUPPOSED to forward them to the GM. But remember, Hatfield was/and is, a lying piece of crap that had his own agenda!__
But Hatfield was dishonest and a sneaky liar with his own agenda.
Mark Hatfield and Ben Becker were two nerds that bonded because they were losers and outcasts in life. They had Professional Wrestling in common. And they later even had highlights of professional wrestling on his sportscasts! YIKES! What legitimate sportscast talks professional wrestling? No wonder these two "liked" each other! What kind of grown men sit around and watch a fake sport that is full of same sex story lines?
Let's be real, who makes an idol of "Gold dust" (homosexual) wrestler besides these two "wannabees" Becker and Hatfield? (BELOW) and (ABOVE).
Later, Becker talked the incompetent Hatfield into to a segment called "Ben's Big Fish." WHAT? Catching fish will get ratings? Apparently, Hatfield was okay with this nonsense? Ben's Big Fish? Here, these two are again promoting a same sex agenda.
Becker was so incompetent that at the next station he went to, that he actually was talking about black golf balls and said "Once you go black, you never go back." This is what we were talking about earlier in this article. UNREAL THAT YOU CAN BE THIS STUPID!!! Well, just the fact that he was running buddies with Becker who makes this outrageous racist comment on the air should tell you something. Check it out below:
When the student newspaper at a recent convention of the National Association of Black Journalists decided to start a column of outrageous quotes, it titled the feature, "Oh, No, He Didn't!"
Columnist Jose Lambiet came up with a likely candidate Sunday in Florida's Palm Beach Post.
"Since it seems more people saw WPTV-News Channel 5 sports director Ben Becker's apology than those who saw his on-the-air racial and sexual comment," Lambiet began, "here is what he said:
"'Once you go black, you never go back!'
Yikes! Becker is either stupid, or a racist...one way or the other, why is he on TV? Any other alternatives here?
"Becker was winding down his sports segment on the 6 p.m. show Thursday with news about a Nike golf ball the pros have started using. The new ball is black. He made the offending comment while signing off. Yikes!" Lambiet continued.
"The ugly-nose-picking sportscaster, who grossed out many, who has been with the station since 2001, was back on at 11 p.m. He apologized for his 'inappropriate and insensitive' words.
"He didn't want to be interviewed, but his boss, news director Peter Roghaar, told Page, the matter was addressed internally. He didn't say how.
"'We received four complaints about it between the 6 and 11 news,' he said. 'He was just trying to make a joke.'"__
Of course he was! A joke from a bigoted racist!!
It's no doubt small consolation to Becker, but he isn't the first to use the line in a N-rated venue. Keep in mind, Mark Hatfield hired this guy!!!
When I worked at KDRV TV in 1996, I immediately knew Mark Hatfield was going to be the worst News Manager I have ever had. I was right! One of the anchor/reporters named Geoffery Riley (who was actually a very good reporter) had his story stained by Hatfield.
But the one that takes the cake is what we talked about earlier. Mark Hatfield telling to one of his reporters in a closed door meeting that he's a virgin. He's probably STILL a virgin after what I've revealed!
LET ME SAY THIS AGAIN!!!!
For what ever idiotic reason, Hatfield revealed to her that he was "a virgin." Once again, What kind of an idiot, that is involved in news, tells one of his reporters that kind of intimate information and doesn't think she will tell EVERYONE? AN INCOMPETENT FOOL, THAT'S WHO!!!
Once again. these are all things I witnessed! And there is more. For now, I want to leave KDRV TV Medford and talk about more reasons you absolutely can not trust local or national news! Let's look at the comments below! NOT ONE POSITIVE COMMENT ABOUT MARK HATFIELD! LET THAT SINK IN!!!
OTHER REASONS TO NEVER TRUST THE LYING MEDIA
When I worked for Westwood One and they asked to do an interview with Patrick Ireland. He was one of the kids that climbed out of the window during the Columbine shootings in Littleton, Colorado in 1999.
That said, When Patrick came out to talk to the media, the first questions were; "DID YOU KNOW THE GUNMEN?" "WHAT WAS KLEBOLD AND HARRIS LIKE?" "DID YOU KNOW THEM BEFORE THAT DAY?"
SO, since it was so obvious that the "press" were not going to honor Patrick Ireland's Doctor and not ask about the events of that day, Ireland simply said...."You know what, I didn't see anything." So, the Rocky Mountain News and Denver Post BOTH said "Patrick Ireland Does not remember the events of that day." BULL!!!!! That is NOT what happened! Patrick Ireland was so annoyed that the press asked him questions that he specifically didn't want them to ask, he just want to shut them all down! ONCE AGAIN, I WITNESSED THIS FIRST HAND!!!!
Okay, another time, I was asked to do the 1-800 number for MCI for the INTERNATIONAL GOLF TOURNAMENT at Castle Pines Colorado. So I was at the press tent for all four days. Let me tell you what happened that the media will not.
Jack Nicklaus was in the hunt in 1988. After his round, the media caught with him in the press tent. Before the media even said anything, Jack, who was sitting in "God's" Chair (Everyone who has been at the International will know what this is), Jack said.."First, I'm sick of the press misquoting me, everytime I come to Denver this happens and you get some one mad at me. (In this case Jack Vickers who funded the tournament). Nicklaus then said "And I'm sick of it."
