What's working for me this week....

1. Support for KKFI. The reaction to my Star Magazine story about the crisis at community radio station KKFI has been gratifying, even from those who disagreed with my conclusion: that KKFI's financial woes are a product not just of revenues, but ratings and relevance as well. One letter-writer said I had made the situation seem "hopeless." It's not hopeless — but the KKFI board is in denial, and until that changes, nothing else will.

2. 10 years cancer-free for Gary Lezak. The KSHB weathercaster is being honored June 7 at Cancer Survivors Park.

3. "Dance Your Ass Off." I have no idea if this new weight-loss competition series, which begins June 29 on Oxygen, is any good or not. But there hasn't been a TV show with a title so wonderfully to the point since "Win Ben Stein's Money."

... AND WHAT'S NOT

1. "The Unit" canceled. On behalf of all my liberal Democrat friends — who tell me this is the only action drama they ever liked — shame on CBS for not finding a spot on its schedule for another season.

2. Double the begging at KCPT. The new KCPT2 channel is innovative, local and interesting — so why are the same canned pledge programs from the main KCPT simulcasting there this week?

3. "The Real World Cancun." They're kidding, right?
