UT San Diego CEO, John Lynch, sued by American Express in 2010
This is really just scratching the surface of Lynch's history of at best- financial "mishaps", and at worst- fraud. Would love to read in these pages about how he was forcefully escorted out of the building at BCA/Local Media of America after his financial misappropriations were discovered- less than two years ago. Or how much he owed the Padres at BCA and what it took to resolve that. Or what the Viejas folks found when they audited BCA's books and how that was eventually resolved. Or how much he still owes creditors and employees for his failed attempt at creating a nation-wide Catholic/Conservative Talk radio network. Or how he harassed and ultimately fired one of his radio DJs for their political beliefs and subsequently got his a** handed to him in arbitration. Lynch has no cash and no juice. His job is to satiate Papa Doug's thirst for power and influence first, and advance his own muddled agenda second. I'm not kidding- if there were any good investigative journalism left in this city- the Lynch story would be Pulitzer-worthy. Or at least very entertaining. I do know that some national media outlets are working on separate pieces highlighting the UT and it's management as a hilarious and cautionary tale about how not to do journalism.— September 20, 2012 9:40 a.m.
