11-15-23 Nicole Sandler Show – KPFK Preemptively Censored Me & Not Even Jason Leopold’s FOIA Prowess Can Help

View on Zencastr Well that was interesting. I have a story to tell you about that bastion of free speech, Pacifica Radio's ailing Los Angeles station KPFK. They offered me the job of Program Director a few years ago. I turned them down because it was a cluster fuck, among other reasons. A few months ago, the interim Program Director got in touch and offered me a weekly show. I agreed and was to begin this Friday. Yes, in two days. This morning the interim General Manager called to tell me they "won't be moving forward" with it. Needless [...]

8-2-23 Nicole Sandler Show – FOIA This with Jason Leopold and TFG’s Indictment #3

View on Zencastr     We spent yesterday's show waiting for the official word on the third indictment for the former guy. Of course, Jack Smith ambled up to the microphones about a minute after I signed off. That's ok... we were all preoccupied with reading the 45-pages detailing the charges against the wanna-be dictator. Today's guest wasn't booked to specifically talk about this story, but Jason Leopold certainly has a FOIA in the fight... Dubbed by some in the government the "FOIA Terrorist," I prefer FOIA Master or even better FOIA King. Jason's current employer Bloomberg News released a [...]

5-6-22 Nicole Sandler Show – Wrapping Up the Week with FOIA Master Jason Leopold

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!) No clever title for this episode. I was toying with "FOIA Terrorist for Hire" or "BuzzFeed Fire Sale" but I figured that the most important part of it is that Jason Leopold is my guest today. Jason has been a senior investigative reporter for BuzzFeed News since 2016. During his time there, he broke a number of huge stories, got nominated for a Pulitzer Prize, and solidified his place as the foremost FOIA expert in media today. Despite all of that BuzzFeed has [...]

We'll move to a much more pleasant [...]

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   The FBI dubbed my friend Jason Leopold a "FOIA Terrorist." It's a label he wears proudly, but it bugs me... because he's not a terrorist. Jason is a hero. Digging deep to uncover the dirt that the powers that be don't want you to see. So I prefer to refer to Jason Leopold as The FOIA Master! And he joins us today. Jason, using his immense power of the pen, filed the paperwork and, in return, was able to get an exclusive [...]

Download here or click below to play, (or watch the video at the bottom of the page!)   Jason Leopold was dubbed “the FOIA Terrorist” by the Bush Administration, and the name stuck because Jason appropriated it! He utilizes FOIA better and more effectively than anyone else in the news business. I had scheduled Jason to join us today because it had been a while since we’d spoken, and was pleasantly surprised to awaken this morning to a new scoop from Jason and his FOIA prowess. Today is May 4 -- as in May the Fourth... and Shirley Serban made [...]
