COMER YATES - HUSBAND TO SALLY YATES
PART FIVE

DOES ANNENBERG FOUNDATION INTERSECT ANY PART OF THE LEADERSHIP OR FUNDING OF ATLANTA SCHOOL?

Because of Comer’s interest in education, that brought to mind the goals of the left from the time of the 1960s to invade and teach radical anti-American concepts to our children, and to make the whole education system bend to that mind set and approach. I idly wondered if there were any intersects between Comer and Bill Ayers.

I did not find any direct connections, but reminded myself that Ayers is associated with the Annenberg Foundation in Chicago.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_Annenberg_Challenge

Annenberg has as its Executive Director, Cinny Kennard.

https://www.annenberg.org/who-we-are/people/

“…Prior to joining the Annenberg Foundation in January 2015, Cinny was the Senior Vice President in charge of Programming at the Smithsonian Institution. In that role, she created partnerships with the Smithsonian involving national and international partners for special educational and media initiatives; managed the programming relationships in the joint venture between the Smithsonian and Showtime/CBS known as the Smithsonian Networks; and brought President Obama for a first-ever interview on Smithsonian Channel. Before Smithsonian, Cinny was the first Managing Director of National Public Radio’s West Coast Production Center – NPR West – in Culver City, with executive responsibility for operational and editorial oversight….”

Hmmmmmm. I’ve been aware for some time that the Smithsonian was a bastion of Liberal Think, but it really has enlarged into the Big Media areas, with of course the Smithsonian Channel.

What caught my attention was the reference to Cinny as the FIRST MANAGING DIRECTOR OF THE NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO’S WEST COAST PRODUCTION CENTER - NPR WEST.

Didn’t we see an NPR intersect with someone on the Atlanta School’s Board of Directors?

Oh my goodness gracious! Lookie there in Part Two. I do believe we did! Atlanta School’s TREASURER, William Linginfelter has connections deep into NPR:

http://gra.org/staff/33/William_Linginfelter.html

William H. Linginfelter, Area President of Georgia Regions Bank at Regions Financial Corp. since June 23, 2008.

“…Linginfelter is on the Executive Board of the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, which he chaired in 2010. He is on the boards of Buckhead Coalition, The Commerce Club, Piedmont HealthCare and THE FOUNDATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING IN GEORGIA….”

I did not find a direct intersect between Linginfelter and Cinny Kennard - nor between Annenberg and Atlanta School. However, during my reading on the Wiki page for NPR, I learned that NPR INDEED HAS A HISTORY OF BEING FUNDED BY THE OPEN SOCIETY INSTITUTE. (FReeQs, FReepers, and devoted Q Lurks know that this is a George Soros organization. In addition, the NPR has a history of being funded by the KROC Foundation. *McDonalds*)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPR

“2010s
In October 2010, NPR accepted a $1.8 million grant from the Open Society Institute. The grant is meant to begin a project called Impact of Government that was intended to add at least 100 journalists at NPR member radio stations in all 50 states by 2013. The OSI has made previous donations, but does not take on air credit for its gifts….”

“OSI…DOES NOT TAKE ON AIR CREDIT FOR ITS GIFTS…”
Proof, if any was needed, of the deceptive practices of the OSI.

“...add at least 100 journalists at NPR member radio stations in all 50 states by 2013...”
Last I looked, Georgia is one of the 50 states (or if you are Obama, “57”) that Soros through NPR wants to affect. And Linginfelter is a mover/shaker for Georgia NPR Foundation. Hmmmmm. True pink flag.

The Chairman of the Board of Atlanta School, Bill Levine, went to the University of Chicago. Annenberg is in Chicago. It is POSSIBLE that there are intersects there, but I was unable to find them.

I continued searching for direct ties between the Georgia NPR organization and the NPR WEST, or between Cinny Kennard and Lingenfelter, but came up empty.

What we seem to be left with is a school, which is very likely (we fervently hope) doing some actual good, and at worst, is funded (or led) by some questionable sources or people with questionable motives. We can imagine worse, but the evidence at the moment does not support it.

There is no direct evidence of wrong doing by our man Comer Yates - or even the Atlanta School and its Board itself, upon the evidence of just this very light dig into it. The school does have connections and intersects with some very liberal Foundations and individuals, but no strong evidence of blatant abuses of what we would want such a school to be doing.

This school has funding or intersections/connections to two major Big Media concerns: NPR and Cox Foundation (Cox Cable/Media Group.)

The NPR has a history of being funded by Soros, although not acknowledged on the air.

The Cox founder, James M Cox, was a VERY prominent Democrat, having been Governor (not of Georgia) and he ran for President with FDR as his VP running mate.

The likelihood is that the Cox family and its concerns remain with or at least in the orbit of the Liberal / Globalist network. With such connected people on the Board of directors of the School, providing those intersections and connections, the number of questions and areas of concern have increased quite a bit. But all we do have are questions.

Nevertheless, people who wish to dig deeper may well, in fact, find better and stronger ties between the NPR/ Annenberg intersect and the Atlanta School or its people than I have been able to do…or other connections which may exist. Remember, I did not dig into all 40 odd of its listed Board Members. And they have an equally abundant list of Advisors.

Because of the number of questions as well as some of the intersections we have found in our overall examination, if we are to assess the color of the alarm condition of this Atlanta School being run by Comer Yates, the flag has moved from a pale pink to a beautiful rose pink.

These are suggestions only of alarm at this stage of investigation that there may be some miscreants misbehaving wrt the Atlanta School. At this stage, Comer appears to be a nice gentle non-alpha male devoting his life to “The Chuldrun.”

So, in this series of “WIVES” (or in this case, “Hubbies,”) while appearances can be deceiving, we seem to see strong liberal biases and connections we have come to expect in many of the spouses of the Players Q has admonished us to “follow.” However, we do not see the outright obvious in your face misbehavior of a Lisa Barsoomian or an Iris Weinshall.

END PART FIVE

Annenberg Foundation. Bill Ayers, Barrack Obama.

(If I recollect correctly before I go to bed.) Was located in the same building as Acorn in Chicago, 15 North Altgeld? They were on different floors. The building has been torn down.
