The top executive at a Bronx youth organization said yesterday that the former director of Air America Radio received more than $800,000 in loans for himself and the radio network from the nonprofit organization while serving as its development director.
Some of the transfers, according to the president of the Bronx-based Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club organization's executive committee, Jeannette Graves, occurred when the development director, Evan Montvel Cohen, who for a time served simultaneously as the liberal radio network's director, appealed to the organization for two loans worth $35,000. Another member of the executive committee said Mr. Cohen told the executive director of the organization that he needed the money to pay for chemotherapy for himself and other medical expenses for his ill father.
Ms. Graves said that Mr. Cohen also received another $213,000 loan for Air America in a check that was approved without her authorization and stamped with an imprint of her signature, and that the club wired more than $400,000 to him without her knowledge.
Mr. Cohen, who no longer is employed by either Air America or Gloria Wise, and who has not been charged with a crime, could not be reached for comment.

The plot is thickening quicker than southern gravy out there. The Air America suits are quickly reciting the Schultzie line, "we know nuss'zing", pointing out that the loans were made to the former parent company, Progress Media, and not their current parent company, Piquant LLC.
Despite their disingenuous and subtle mouthing cries of "victim", aptly expected from an extreme liberal network who specializes in advancing that role, Air America has agreed in writing to repay $800K in installments over two year.
What a "feel good" gesture from a company that proclaims they aren't guilty, eh? Well God Bless 'em and their big hearts...
One can't help but smell a rat. So it's a story picking up steam not only in the blogosphere, but cable news' Brit Hume and CNN's Inside Politics.
All in all, this should be fun to watch - a scandal worthy of being labeled a Republican conspiracy by elitist liberals! LOL! So much for corrupt, evil big business CEOs, creaming off the top, as being the icon for rich, heartless, Republican conservatives.
Then again, who knows. Perhaps they'll find a way to blame this all on some hidden conservative CEO, portraying themselves as the ultimate victims of a frame up.
