www.Reporting-Ethics.com
I started creating this Web site www.reporting-ethics.com back in early 2000. I did it in response to a challenge I received from my IRS manager.
At the IRS, my job was to answer incoming tax phone calls, figure out the customer's specific question and direct it appropriately to be answered ASAP. The topics of their questions dealt with all types of tax questions. These ranged from the simple income tax questions to the more advanced capital gains or death tax questions.
In a conversation I had with my manager, she challenged me to figure out a way to turn this free and necessary service performed by the IRS and turn it into a profitable venture. She made the suggestions to air the conversations with the customers and the contact representatives on a radio show. Then to have create a Web site to back up these conversations.
With these suggestions and other assistance I received from the IRS, I have created this Web site. It consists of 20+ pages of different issues effecting the taxpayers. On each of these pages there are links to recent articles and other sites covering these topics. Their goal is to keep my audiences up to date on the latest news concerning each of these issues.
The contents of the radio show will primarily be the conversations aired between the Contact Representative of the IRS and the customers. This way there will be more who will gain from the information consulted than just the person on the phone.
The rest of the time will consist of interviews with different federal professionals who's jobs this site and show are going to be made easier. In the process providing my audiences with another way to learn what to do and not to do concerning the IRS policies and procedures. This is while they can learn from reading and listening to other's successes and failures.
I have created this blog in the hopes of gaining some additional feedback. This is why I am asking for any comments good or bad about my site. My e-mail address is lemay17@hotmail.com or there is another link at the bottom you can click to add any additional comments. This way I can learn from it and improve my site.
In future entries I will cover different issues effecting the NW Portland and are of concern of Reporting-Ethics. A good example is the series of articles in the The Oregonian concerning Meth use and abuse. In those, it covered a number of issues which Reporting-Ethics was written. Some of these topics are ID Theft, Most Wanted, tax avoidance, IRS, Fraud, and etc.

Your site is a killer of an idea. What you need now is some more marketing and you will be rolling in the cash. Until then it might be tough, but hang in there!!!

After viewing the second Presidential debate, Bush is going to win in November without a doubt. All I know is there are going to be a number of disappointed people when I will naturally rub it in good.
This is something in which I definitely look forward to do.
