As a physically disabled individual, I am extremely disgusted and will not be giving them a dime.
Local non-profits from now on; they do so much more good, anyway.
I keep re-replaying his final telethon in my mind, and become so angry and sad. This powerful wing of MDA can go to hell for not even giving us an indication that they truly care. The former head of MDAI was known as a Jerry Lewis hater, but it really goes way “beyond” that; the way everything was handled seems extremely suspicious and DOWNRIGHT CRUEL. Especially for a supposed charity; it was extremely uncharitable.
Based on my morals and ethics, I do not wish to be associated with such an organization.

For decades Labour Day for millions meant a time where we could turn on the TV for some heart warming stories and great live entertainment. Today there is nothing worth tuning in for. It’s an end of a great era where the Fire Fighters and all the great corporations and organizations showed us what they were made of. Executive Vice President Kevin Moran is a fool as are the rest of the MDA executives if they think cutting back the program and taping a poorly done 3 hour show is the way to go in 2012 and beyond. Old saying is if it isn’t broken don’t fix it. The MDA Telethon was fine the way it was. Executive Vice President Kevin Moran and his cronies are getting rich for doing less. They treated Jerry like so much garbage the way they severed ties with him and the show last year. Watch what happens now. Monies to the MDA will drop drastically. Yet Executive Vice President Kevin Moran and his executive buddies will continue to collect whatever bloated salaries they receive. Never ever again will I support this organization unless they fix what should not have been tampered with.
