KINK has much larger issues that no one seems to care about. why worry about this?

For example, after KINK added a song by Fiona Apple on Jan. 17, Sony's 550
label paid Clark $1,000, the bank says. Vivendi Universal's Mercury label paid Clark
$1,000 on Feb. 14 after KINK added a song by Kim Richey. Bertelsmann's Windham Hill
label, EMI Group's Capitol label and AOL Time Warner's Giant label each paid about
the same fee for songs by Janis Ian, Shivaree and Steely Dan, according to the bank.
Another document, titled "non-money stuff," shows a list of songs played by KINK and
a corresponding list of products or services, including concert tickets and a promise
that certain acts might appear later at a station benefit.

'We Don't Do Anything Illegal or Unethical'
Clark and the station management deny that the paperwork is an accounting of songs
aired in exchange for payment of products or services.
"The document you have in your hand is typical of the kind of paperwork most
independents use for their private bookkeeping," KINK Program Director Dennis
Constantine said in an interview. "I don't know how it got out."
