My robust HR career includes the design, creation, recruitment, and compensation of all positions that direct, manage, deliver, and support media relations, public relations, broadcasting, and advertising, for both public and private sector environments; from sound engineers to traffic accountants, from directors of public or media relations to web masters, from radio announcers to reporters, from producers to video editors, and more! Equally important, and prior to the "Johnny-come-lately" woke-creation of DEI is my demonstrated commitment to objectively hire and promote qualified candidates and to broadcast content to engage, reflect, and showcase extremely diverse community groups, organizations, businesses, political parties, and individuals.
"I was so impressed by the 'Asian Ways for Children' program that I just had to contact you and get a copy to show my kids and grandkids!
Thank you for showing such a great program on your channel!" Shirley Higbee
• At Community Telecast, Inc. (CTI22):
Community Telecast, Inc., (CTI22), and IRS 501 (c)(3) was the only broadcast cable television company in metro Omaha and within 18 states to focus on the community. For its general operations CTI22 received NO financial support based on grants, and NO tax support from the federal government, or State of Nebraska, or local government, and CTI22 did not receive revenue based on Franchise Fees from the cable provider. CTI22 was supported only through membership fees and donations.
Through my volunteer role as President/CEO/General Manager, not only did I personally film, produce, direct, edit, and broadcast content [see "Healthy Choices" graphic at right, list of broadcast programs below, and click images below to watch YouTube.com videos or MP4 files; I also successfully achieved diversity outreach objectives through new relationships with the Native American, Asian, and Latino communities. I increased CTI22's market share, broadcast program hours, and doubled CTI22's operating budget in less than 7 months, ultimately by more than 200%! As validated by testimonials from our broadcast audience (click here), and as reported to the Omaha City Council in April 2010 [http://www.cti22.org/franchise.htm], at any given time CTI22's broadcast audience ranged from 13% to 20% of Cox subscribers!

Reynolds produced, filmed, edited, and broadcast 35,760+ hours of community-based content and related media relations.
Decades before "DEI" became yet another catch-phrase for "affirmative action," and before "Women's Liberation Movement" evolved into the "#METOO movement," and before "Black and Proud" evolved into "Black Lives Matter," CTI22 broadcast more of the following content than all other metro area TV stations combined: public service announcements promoting metro Omaha community-based organizations, ethnics groups, LGBT+, events, and businesses; more original programming involving elected officials; more original, Omaha-based programming for African-American, Latino, Native American, Asian, and other ethnic groups; and more original, Omaha-based religious programming.

• Identified discriminatory practices by the City of Omaha and Cox Communications that blatantly prevented equal access to public/community access television. To read report, click here.
As represented in the graph above, Omaha is one of the most racist cities in the United States. [Note similarities to St. Louis, Missouri]
CHARACTER AND SCOPE OF
BROADCAST AUDIENCE
• CTI22 produced and broadcast more first-run and “prime time” public service announcements than all metro Omaha television stations combined.
• CTI22 was
the only broadcast entity in the history of metro Omaha to regularly produce and broadcast weekly “prime time” content featuring a White woman, Latina woman,
Black woman, Asian Woman, and a Native American woman.
• CTI22 was
the only broadcast entity in the history of metro Omaha to regularly produce and
broadcast weekly “prime time” content featuring a White man, Latino man, Black
man, Asian man, and a Native American man.
• CTI22 was the only television station in metro Omaha to consistently provide instant information to and from citizens of Omaha through numerous "live" talk-back programs - programs broadcast throughout metro Omaha!
• CTI22 believed it's a god thing to inform and educate persons who ultimately wield ownership or control of every facet of American society - that all people share a commitment to success! As respresented by the slide show below, CTI22 broadcast more diverse content than any broadcast entity in the history of metro Omaha!
• CTI22 consistently complied with all reporting and operating requirements established
by Cox Communications and the City of Omaha.
• For the
2010 U.S. Census, CTI22 was the only broadcast entity in metro Omaha to
regularly broadcast ALL seven-(7) public service announcements produced by the
U.S. Census Bureau targeted for all ethnic groups: White, Black, Asian,
Pacific-Islander, Hispanic/Latino, Native American, and the general
public. Plus, CTI22 produced and broadcast two-(2) original PSAs targeting Omaha's Latino population. Click the image below to enlarge the award received by CTI22 from the U.S. Census.
• Despite CTI22's well-documented record of broadcast success, and commitment to showcasing all aspects of the community, CTI22's success was not supported by Cox Communications or the City of Omaha, which resulted in the termination of its business operations in June 2013.
Presented below is a partial list of diverse, original programs which I produced and/or broadcast on CTI22.
Content included regularly scheduled weekly and monthly programs, and the one-time broadcast of hundreds of "special programs."
Over two dozen "flagship," regularly scheduled "primetime" weekly* programs were broadcast from five-(5) to twenty-(20) years!
