ABC4 in Salt Lake City, Utah recently ran a story about a 12 year old boy who chose to attempt to join NACHI despite his own father being a member of ASHI, a known no-entrance-requirement diploma mill.
Today ABC4 voluntarily chose to pull the story and remove it from their website after receiving NACHI’s response to it:
The reporter also said she attempted to contact NACHI and got no response. The entire industry knows I answer every email, every day and that if she truly followed the simple instructions at the top of www.nachi.org/contact.htm I would certainly have responded, even driven over to Utah to correct the story, but she did not email NACHI for comment, not once.
I congradulate ABC4 for pulling the backwards story.
Well, it is obvious the reporter didn’t go out looking for this story in particular so the Dad had to contact them first. News must be really boring in Salt Lake for this to even get on. “News Flash” Susan B. Anthony Jones had the blue plate special today over at the Squat and Gobble Diner. Susan could not be reached for comment on how she liked it…news at 11.
I’m talking with ClearChannel’s counsel now in an effort to get them to post my response, including the live link to ASHI’s entrance requirements on their main site. I know, I know… I have a mean streak .
I live by a rule: I treat everyone better than they treat me.
In ASHI’s case… I can treat them pretty $hitty without breaking my rule.
So we have a father fraudulently using his son to justify the fathers agenda and instilling in his son that lying is okay? Perhaps the school board and the Childrens Aid Society should be called into invesitage what surely is a father who thinks its okay to use his son in deceitful activities.
I think you should do a story on poor parenting skills.
The Boy passed the test which demonstrates that he has learned something from his father over the years. He is demonstrating the aptitude of his ability to someday to join the Business of his Father. There is clearly a retention of the information conveyed to him by his Father over the years. That is excellent.
The article also shows the impact of a softening Real Estate Market in Utah. As the market softens, one must re-evaluate / strategize their business model in order to maintain income and increase market share. In looking at his own Business and the areas where his marketing may need more focus, the Business Owner visualizes the NACHI Organization as his greatest threat to increasing his Market share.
Even the Canadian Association is talking about it. There usual spokesperson seems to grasp at straws to try and prove a point, except his animosities seem to cloud his logic.
Sorry guys, I just don’t get it. If you follow the critics logic to it’s inevitable end then they must also condemn the electoral systems and electorates in both the United States and Canada because cats, dogs, horses and dead people have registered to vote.
Doesn’t wash.
Tempest in a tea pot.
Typical muck raking news reporting.
Says more about the critics than it does about NACHI.
