The Abandonment of Broadcasting

Bruce Allen is a crude, distasteful excuse for a human being.

His rant about immigrants the other day expressed what many Canadians feel.

Unfortunately, it was simplistic, ugly, graceless and without subtlety or shading or understanding of the complexities.

Mr. Allen declares that he is an "editorialist." HAHAHAHA...

And that he "makes people think." HAHAHAHA...

When I was a kid growing up in Winnipeg, we used to describe vanity and self-delusion as a mosquito floating down the Red River on its back with an erection and hollering, OPEN THE DRAWBRIDGE!"

Moreover he is in a clear conflict of interest sitting on the board that will select artists for the 2010 opening and closing ceremonies. He has already selected his own stable of clients.

Management at the radio station have been starf**kers for many years now. I'm surprised they haven't given Todd Bertuzzi his own show.

The fact that they defend Mr. Allen and his superior, white, hate-mongering demonstrates the sewer levels to which this once important community resource has now sunk.
