Who's been naughty and nice ithis year?
In the media biz...who will Santa treat well and who will get a lump of coal?
My naughty list is Bell Globe Media for the cuts
That Mississauga Radio Station for not getting it together
For Greg Zaun (What the heck man)?
My nice list is:
City TV's Breakfast TV
That Ralph Benmurgi is back on occasion on Jazz FM and CBC Radio
That Mansbridge retired after a great career
Who makes your naughty and nice list?
Merry Christmas Big Yella...to all of you for making this board a way better place to be...and thanks to Iain Grant for doing a rock solid job!
The world would be so good if it weren't for some people...

Re: Who's been naughty and nice ithis year?
Joe...I have to admit...here and now...that I've personally been rather naughty this year. Oh well. I'm going to be a VERY good boy tomorrow and that otta fool ol' St. Nick yet again.
I think I'd cut Zaunny a bit of a break,,,and place blame at the feet of the wimps at Rogers who sacrificed Greg in order to score some crawl around on your belly 'points'. THAT was gutless to the Nth degree. May coal...huge dollops of it...be their ongoing reward for years to come for this and other never-ending misdemeanors. Big corporations are not good for our industry. They don't know...and they don't care. That there are some even worse than these cowards will go without further comment as we all know who they are. And I'm being 'good'.
A Merry and a Happy to one and all.

Finally in 2018...you'll actually be allowed to, at long last, legally join the 'Fabs' ... and "roll up for the Mystery Tour". It's coming... ... ...to take you away... ... ...

Re: Who's been naughty and nice ithis year?
I was just remembering the good old, bad old days, when there was a kind of naughty (between two consenting adults) that was also kind of nice.
It's so outta hand, the media and social media, and the conversations in both, I've coined the phrase "politically correct-ile disfunction" to try to capture the magnitude of the craziness of the world and how careful and considered one must be. The hyperbole and faux outrage is always at 11, to borrow a number from a certain guitarist. ;)
Naughty: People who cannot take the time to read up on a subject, before opening their mouths. Naughty: Media companies who reduce staff so the public has to turn to less reputable sources.
Nice: Those radio, television, and newspaper and magazine folks who soldier on, more underpaid and overworked than ever, because they believe that what they do matters, and it does!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays fellow Big Yellow Boarders.
