I do believe this is going to be more fun then I thought just reading the first official post about something you’ve already spun wrong.
1st – You don’t remove a part owner. You buy him out, you alter his role, you can attempt a number of adjustments but it’s not something someone gets “fired” from. Further, the role of PD is responsible for the on-air staff, talent grooming, show development, etc. Lack of promotions is out of anyone’s control aside from those who funded the kitty. And trust me my friend, getting a Sparklets account was an issue. Traffic is the responsibility of the web team. The on-air staff’s role is to be entertaining enough to keep them once they arrive. And when there are nightly technical issues, higher ups that are willing to burn fans, clients and loyal servants who gave them their product….its pretty tough keeping morale up.
Don’t assume or accept ANY reason or assumption as to why things are as they are. There was no “CAUSE” in my employment termination. Technically it was illegal.
It was two partners who disagreed heavily about the direction, policies and ethics involved to move to the next level.
The immature public firing was part of a short sighted pissing match in which the gentlemen who thought he did a big and powerful thing today will very soon regret as his actions broke a binding legal agreement, labor laws and a bevy of other crossed lines that he has no legal recourse to take. If I wanted to go to work tomorrow night, legally, as owner…and even as employee…I’m within my rights to do so.
It’s easy to hate the loud mouth on the radio cuz ya don’t think he’s funny or not your style, but ask any KSEXer from today back to six years ago who kept the game fair, morally acceptable and always about fairness to his staff…all while creating everything that IS KSEX with the help of a small group of hand picked talented folks who saw the vision and helped realize it.
I considered Joe a friend and ally over the years. And even with Belinkie’s childish, self-embarrasing actions, would still. But his comments in the chat room, their choice to force an old friend into an uncomfortable spot live on the air and their approach and blatent disrespect of the history, foundation, effort and relationship building success of the man who brought it all together…to out him like a person who did the company wrong…that says it all my friend.
Welcome to the REAL NEW KSEX. Bring a condom, they ain’t checkin’ for tests!
*Big News and Announcement Monday. Stay tuned…
PS: If you’re gonna write “WANKUS WAS UNAVAILABLE FOR COMMENT” and try to slightly appear Ted Koppelish….do me a favor…try contacting me for comment first. Cheesy high school journalism shit was so Porn 90s. People are getting both sides now since Yahoo Addys are so easy to make.
This is a great day-Wankus has already been reduced to whoring out his middle-aged and mannish wife yet still needed KSEX to pay all the bills. I wonder if they’re going to start eating trash now.
Wankus is OK in my book. I met both him and Joe at CES 2007, and were both very cordial. Wankus may be fast and loud someetimes, but his heart is in the right place, and really has made KSEX what it is the past 5 years. This is the guy who mad e all the commercials, promos, show formats, etc. It is going to be quite a different place without him! I wish him luck! He can always go back to music.
I heard Tyler’s packing her bags as we speak. I hear she’s taking the dog, too, just to spite him.

I for one will miss Wankus because of his usefulness to the porn world as an object of buffoonery and derision.
I can’t even believe this is a story. A guy using a fake radio voice broadcasting on the internet to no listeners. Meanwhile on the other site, the guy who wears a hat to cover up his baldness is treating this story like the world is ending. Another example of why porn will always be an industry full of wannabe’s and amateurs.
I never listened to this half baked , do nothing idiot in the first place. KSEX is nothing, was nothing and is lame. Wankus is nothing but an outsider gloming on to the porn industry. These idiots like him and other “porn bloggers” all come off as if they are objective, like they want to report news. Basically they want to become directors /performers. It almost always turns out that way. As far as sale and distribution are concerned the internet gossips mean nothing.
Its kind of funny. When most of you clowns were hacking into the video feed at Ksex Wank was your best friend. After he found out and you could get in be bent over backwards to get you hooked up. Now that is he gone I dont think I am staying around.
I just love how you clowns all of a sudden want to bash Wankus. When you jokers were hacking into the Ksex video feed. But once they got wise to it you started hating him.
Either that or you are just third tier comp that is glad to see him go.
I for one am not sure I will watch ksex anymore. But then again I was trying to get a job out there
