In Reply To: Is he the same one? Gee, that's great that he brings coffee to breaking news scene (like all GM's should)...I don't hate him--I've never even worked for him. But, if you like your GM simply because he comes to news events with coffee--you might have your head screwed on a tad crooked. He must not have much work to do in HIS office. It sound from News Blues like he fired a very good News Director. Hmmmm....Very demanding and hands-on...and brings coffee to news stories? Sounds like a GM with too much time on his hands, or a micro-manager that might be a pretty good waiter. When you get some REAL management, give the rest of the broadcast world a call. Boy, that would fly in Detroit..."Here's your coffee, I'll run camera, by the way no one's doing MY job right now." Get a clue, your GM's days are numbered.
Message: Hey stupid ass, just because I used one example (ie coffee at a breaking new story), it doesn't mean there are not countless other reasons to think Eric's a good, competant leader. It just so happened I chose to use that one. Eric's good because he knows how to listen. He's good because he's not afraid to break a few rules. And he's good because he's a nice person in an industry full of a-holes like you.
