Media Roundup

Turkeys
The Times Union tried to charge us extra for the privilege of receiving their big Thanksgiving edition. What the what?  You should be paying me to take your giant pile of advertising. And , yes — I still have the paper delivered, which I guess means that I’m old.

Quote of the Week
“Everybody says something stupid at one point in their life.”                                   -Paul Vandenburgh

Yes, they do. In fact, some people say something stupid every fucking day of their life. On the radio. In Albany.

The Departed
Two high profile departures from WNYT announced this week: morning anchor Phil Bayly and meteorologist Jason Gough. Both were really solid guys and great at their jobs.

What does it mean? Maybe nothing, but two in one week seems a little weird; if we get a third, then we know something’s up. Too bad we don’t have a media reporter in this town.
