ONN – Scott McKibben Has Been An Asset To The Oakland Coliseum JPA As Executive Director
In my opinion Scott McKibben was wrongly set-up by the Board of the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Joint Powers Authority. Scott was asked to do the work of finding a naming rights agreement partner – in other words, doing work a marketing consultant normally does – then basically accused of asking for the normal additional fee such work commands.
The Coliseum JPA Board and the City of Oakland Lawyers never told him not to ask for that, or what conflict of interest looks like in that case, even as they put him in that position. None of that should mark the excellent work Scott has done in turning an organization that has been a plaything for elected officials into a serious municipal corporation tasked with running an iconic sports venue.
Scott McKibben got the Coliseum JPA into the financial black after over a decade of losing money. Why? Because previous directors did not know how to ask for what the facility was worth in rent. Scott did.
Scott was asked to jump through all kinds of hoops by the Coliseum JPA Board. He did, and then they punished him for doing so. It sends a message that no good sports professional should consider working in Oakland.
Stay tuned.
Note from Zennie62Media and Oakland News Now: this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a YouTube channel. When the video is “liked” by Zennie62 YouTube, then it is automatically uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective here, on top of our is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours – is the use of the existing YouTube social graph on any subject in the World. Now, news is reported with a smartphone and also by promoting current content on YouTube: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary, or having a camera crew to shoot what is already on YouTube. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
