#ASK_Chicago:
Class Act Lawsuit against @CBS should be filed (collectively inclusive of each
Actor/Writer/Worker/Service [Individual/Company] involved in The Production) of Wisdom of The Crowd (whose Twitter Handle is @wisdomcbs). IF Show was #terminated due 2 Jeremy Piven's - @jeremypiven
Indiscretions (of which he underwent a Lie Detector to prove his Innocence), he
should go to Court FIRST and FOREMOST, not be fired, terminated and outright humiliated (ruining his Reputation) on-the_Spot by David Gray
Rhodes - @davidgrayrhodes, CBS News President acting as self-imposed: #JUDGE
#JURY and #LEAD_EXECUTIONER. Hundreds (if not more) of major Talents (who make this Show
as unique as it is) are losing their JOBS here. This catapults into Millions of
Fans being crushed and devastated.
Q: Where is The Justice?
A
high Percentage of TV Programs (these Days) is schlock Friction & Fiction that carries no Weight, Relevance
or has a Message that is vital, especially when it comes to The SURVIVAL of The
People – Humanity. In case you did not
notice that is YOU and ME. And, these
Days, it even includes and filters in our beloved Pets (great Part of our Family & Family Life) who can easily be hurt while out on the
Rough and Tough Streets of America and subsequently across the entire World since no locale is immune from Crime and Terror(ism). Few Shows carry any Meaning or has this Impact.
Let me repeat that for Impact:
Few Shows carry any Meaning or has this Impact.
Reality TV of “The 90s” is primarily responsible
for this Lack of Creativity, Morality and/or Ethics.
Not
only did We faithful Audience Members watch diligently, but, I for one took it
upon myself to take Photos with my new Smartphone of my TV Screen and tweeted those Freezeframes (all
labeled and captioned) back to The Actors & Writers (namely Blake, Patrick, Jeremy and Ion) who I
was corresponding with during its Stint on-air to date. During The Show as it aired, that is when The Bevy of Tweets really flew wild and fast.
#WisdomCBS and/or #WOTC was how each Tweet was labeled.
At Work the next Day and Days thereafter, an Open Discussion yielded the best Conversation
around the Water Cooler. Everyone was thirsty to air their Opinion. Everyone had a View; Everyone got involved in
expressing theirs. After all, We were Pioneers on The Verge of exploring new Territory.
Not
only is WoTC an exciting Format and Storyline that provokes, but We {as Individuals} were Participants
in a LEARNING CURVE – becoming EDUCATED ABOUT The Wonders of WHAT our New Age
in High Technology and AI: Artificial Intelligence does and can do to SERVE AND
PROTECT People in a World that is strewn with the Worst of Intentions, non-stop Violence, Bloodpaths, Chaos and
Mayhem, just short of a(nother) World War.
In my quieter Moments, I often stop and think:
Where did We ever go so wrong?
What
has been disregarded by The Executives who control CBS Programming is the stark Realization that Wisdom of The Crowd is
the ONLY Television Show and in The Course of TV Broadcasting that actually
AIMS to solve all the Murderous Crimes and Violence that other TV Shows have
capitalized in on.
We are all Fans of the Dick Wolf TV Shows with the screeching brakes and blood-soaked Crime & Court & getaway Car Scenes. He has never missed a Beat as outlined here:
http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/dick-wolf/credits/194137/
with 26 Executive Producer Credits;
10 Writer Credits;
6 Producer Credits;
6 Creator Credits;
3 Source Credits;
2 Remarks Credits;
1 Director Credit;
1 Actor Credit;
6 Guest Credits; and
1 Subject (Person only) Credit
His Empire speaks for itself but now the People must be able to advance what they know because they are on The Scene where The Action is occuring. A Solution to capture and then try these Criminals is what Wisdom of The Crowd offers through High Technology which is at The Forefront of Our Lives. Why not use and spare another Family a Life of Sadness and Gloom?
Just wait till ONE OF THEIRS has an explosive or deadly
Incident happen to them. Then, CBS Head Honchos will
want that Crime solved ASAPe without a Moment to wast in order to pick up "The Pieces of their Lives" and woefully TRY to
carry on.
The
List of Crime Shows [since TV kicked in and was launched successfully] (after
WW2 when The Invention became MORE commonplace) numbers in The Hundreds, possibly more.
Turn to: American Crime
Television Series
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:American_crime_television_series
and
your Mind will be boggled as to the diverse and endless Number of Crime TV
Shows.
Movies are not included in this List. Those are found at:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_crime_films
As
Wiki tells us:
This is chronological list of crime films split by
decade. Often there may be considerable overlap particularly between Crime and
other genres (including, action, thriller, and drama films); the list should
attempt to document films which are more closely related to crime, even if it
bends genres.
#STOP_AND_THINK: If that isn’t telling you something…
AND,
I will continue by saying…
Crime
is a popular Theme, if not the most popular besides Game and Food Shows. One of the First Books I read after I learned how to read
was Truman Capote’s IN COLD BLOOD (published in 1966 and its Movie came out in
1967). As The Cycle revolves: Books are
turned into Movies. Then, these Movies (too) are driven by WHO SOLVED THE
MURDER.
Yet,
now We have a SHOW
in which
PEOPLE can be saved
and
Families spared the Pain and Heartbreak
and
CBS IS AXING THE SHOW.
This is Total Insanity.
I refuse and am NOT going to watch or buy Products from a Station that does NOT care for MY
WELFARE or those that I love, including Pets, Neighbors and Community. Wisdom of The Crowd sparks do-able ways on how to PLAY IT SAFER
and coalesce as a GROUP in which We can live in a more peaceful World. This is
a new Phrase and Mindset for TV.
VIA
MY BLOG HERE CALLED KOOPERSMITHin:
As I had called a BOYCOTT against CBS when
they terminated the Contract of (THEEE) Charlie Rose in November, the same
should be done with how abusive CBS Heads are mistreating the Actors, Writers & entire Staff who makes WoTC as spectacular as it is.
IF CBS does not
care for The WELFARE of “Their Viewers and Audience Members who put the BREAD
and BUTTER on their Table; provide their Families with a luxurious way and
style of Living; make sure they get every coveted Award at every NYC Gala, then they
are not worthy of our Allegiance and Patronage.
The only one who carried this Spark-of-Light
was John Walsh who created and produced AMERICA’s MOST WANTED and currently
THE HUNT. (T)his Movement of CARING FOR THE PEOPLE came about due to the horrific
Abduction/Kidnapping and Murder of his small Son: Adam Walsh on July 27, 1981 that “fueled
an epic manhunt.”
Those 4 last Words were derived from a Google Search – Page 1. Adam's severed Head was
found two weeks later in a drainage canal alongside Florida's Turnpike in rural
St. Lucie County, Florida. This Paragraph is every Parent’s Worst Nightmare.
It
still breaks my Heart Today to see John’s Face every Time his Shows air. What he did was take the FIRST STEP before SOPHE was ever invented to track down those who harmed US or Our Loved
Ones.
AND TO PULL A SHOW
that does that is utter Insanity. This
goes beyond Ratings. These are People
who watch; who listen; who buy your Sponsor’s Products. WITHOUT US, you’re Toast,
Mr. Rhodes et.al.
Which
leads me to say that you need not be a PARENT to know how WISDOM OF THE CROWD
can save Lives. Any Person living in
Today’s ever-changing World knows about all The SurveillanceCameras at Intersections. When
We walk into Stores (Convenience – Department – Grocery -Pet – Florists – Jewelry
– Toy) Cameras record our very Moves.
When you turn on The Nightly News (after a long Day where anything can and will happen especially when powered up on gun-fare and drugs), Reels of Crimes are presented of the Perpetrator-in-Action.
The Psychology behind The News is that The Stations are asking for
OUR HELP - The People who watch. If you see something, say something. Say it out-loud so that what happens never happens again. Yes, they are PULLING a “Wisdom of The Crowd by airing and
broadcasting those Clips in order that The Criminal gets caught.
As
a Crime Victim on several Occasions (Break-Ins, Muggings and Hold-Ups) since
I have lived in Chicago from June of 1974 to The Present (December, 2017 as this is being penned on December 6), the
Worst Situation happened on December 23, 1991 when I was beat-up, robbed and
left-for-dead in a Pool of Blood (mine) in the Lobby of my Apartment Building at 1437 West Rosemont. I was only 10 steps away from the warm and safe confines of my apartment when I was brutally attacked, an Event that would forever change the Course of My Life and it still does. What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger. Indeed, Words to live by...
Being The Activist that I am, I created Cartoonists
Against Crime ©1991 that grew into a Universal Cause. Sadly, in 2001 I had to produce a Spin-Off
called Cartoonists Against Terrorism ©2001 after September 11TH
happened.
THE
WORLD Situation is not getting any better. If any thing [since I began
Cartoonists Against Crime ©1991 26 years ago] Human Behavior evidencing itself
as CRIME and VIOLENCE have gotten worse.
The only thing that is our SAVIOR is that High Technology sees (videos, records and films) what We do NOT overtly see and this will send The Criminals away for a long,
long time. The SOPHE Mechanism that WoTC uses takes us to a higher more useful
Level of Conveyance and Conscience.
THE
BOTTOM LINE IS: Had WoTC been around when Charles Lindberg’s Baby Boy of 20 months, Charles Augustus Lindbergh, Jr. was snatched
and killed…
It
does not matter if a Person is affluent and wealthy although “Means and Recognition” help immensely if he/she can afford Body Guards when out on The
Streets; Streets that can become a death-bed for an Innocent and Loving Person,
a Pillar of The Community or just a regular Gal or Guy like you or me. Being lifted from the safe Confines of one's home (their fortress) is unimaginable as was also the case when 12 year old Polly Klaas was kidnapped at knifepoint during a Slumber from her Bedroom in Petaluma, California. Were there Witnesses? Could the Wisdom of The Crowd helped in this Case?
When mere Children are brainwashed or sold to
Terrorist Organizations and programmed to blow themselves up, We [as Mankind] know there is something
severely wrong with how We think.
A barking Dog is alerting you something is wrong.
The "Barking Dog here" is the Viewers of WoTC.
There is something severely wrong here that a Program of this Calibre is being cancelled.
WISDOM
OF THE CROWD works collectively to save whatever Life We have left. Don’t We owe this to Future Generations if
this Planet is to exist. Survival of The Fittest no longer counts or holds
water when 10 year old gang members pack-a-pistol and can kill instantly at any
moment. This is the Unraveling of Civilization as We know it and unless there is
ONE PROGRAM that lets us know HOW to protect ourselves and our belongings, then
Mayhem (like never before) can be expected – if not predicted as I am doing
here, a Criminology and Sociology Major (circa Washington University: 1974).

IN CLOSING: As The 26TH Year Anniversary of my Founding of Cartoonists Against Crime approaches, I am bittersweet yet forever grateful that I am alive. That's The BottomLine. Shaked and rattled at first; but happy I was able to reach out to Strangers at first who later became my Friends) - People (across The Planet) so that what happened to me would not happen to them.
ViA the incredibly well-written Scripts by their Team of WoTC Writers, they, too, are saving Precious Lives, but on a greater Scale - one that UNFORTUNATELY is needed like never before.
Lets use COMMON SENSE and let your Heart
lead The Way in re-instating this TV Program.
If not, you’ll rue The Day that its last Episode aired. #Mark_My_Words. All of them.

I ran this Page past my Best Friend and Boyfriend (of 15 years) who
always has an Outlook culminating in a prolific Quote for everything (at The
Crack of Dawn Today it being December 6, 2017) and he stated a very eloquent
Line that I will share with you below.
“As Artificial Intelligence becomes more
advanced and complex,
it will be The Wisdom of The Cloud.”
Quote of: Robert E. Hofstadter: December 6, 2017 – 5:07-5:10 AM CST
INSIGHTS:
Robert E. Hofstadter: Relative of Richard Hofstadter (who taught in NYC in the
1950s); Robert Hofstadter (Stanford Faculty in California), sharing The 1960
Nobel Prize in Physics; and Douglas Hofstadter at Indiana University who received his Pulitzer in
1980: My Robert hails from a Winner of 3
Pulitzers and 1 Nobel Prize. I pride
myself in standing in Good Company with People of The Intelligentsia.
