He's still fired.
I still don't get it.
580CFRA, the go to station for the masses in your capital [along with CBC ONE], let Michael Harris go a few weeks ago.
Next to Brett Farve's penis incident eighteen months ago this is the most talked about topic I have ever written about.
Here is what I still don't get about the whole thing. CFRA has a 10 share, give or take, in Ottawa. Replacing Mr. Harris with the talentless Ron Corbett may save them, let's be generous here, 100,000$ a year. But it is going to cost them in listeners and in the very valuable quarter hour shares which is what radio stations sell.
Another inexplicable thing that they do is re run Lowell Green, truly the franchise at 'RA, in the evening. Lowell Green is not a porn film; you don't have to experience the same show twice. For a few bucks, say 30 K, they, Ken Gray, could drop new talent in there and build their cume.
Shortsightedness, typical of Canadian media, typical.

CFRA fired his rear end. Still loving it. No doubt he will pop up on Al Jazeera or PressTV, if not already.
