North will be back playing with other people's lives and money. No one will stand up to him. I'll betcha tomorrow Jesse, Fred, et al, would jump off a building if he told them to. |

If North was lining up another sponsor one month ago, and if checks were bouncing for quite some time (for at least some people), why did North let OB and Doug sign that contract last week? |

I believe Hub Arkush was not a Pappy guy from the beginning. Hub initially frowned on going to WSCR because of North after the Bears dumped him. Hub may not be the best measuring stick. I do agree with you that North's image has taken a hit, probably both with the listening audience and those in radio. |

This idea blows my fucking mind. Are you seriously writing a business and telling them not to employ somebody you hate? Think about that. Better yet, say it out loud and tell me you don't feel like a fucking psychopath. Further... go tell a loved one that you plan to write a TV station and tell them not to employ somebody because that is easier than ignoring a single TV channel for 3 hours in the morning when you are probably already at work. Honestly, this is the beginning step of a process that ends up with you breathing heavily outside his residence watching him sleeping. This is fucking insane. I can't even believe I am reading this. I hate plenty of people on radio, in print, on TV and in Movies... but I can't even FATHOM the idea of approaching any of those businesses and telling them not to hire somebody. I JUST DON'T LISTEN, READ OR WATCH THE PERSON I DON'T LIKE. Doesn't that make sense... am I just missing something obvious here? Honestly, I hate this word... but this is borderline retarded. Unreal. |

You and Kirk are the retarded ones. Fuck North. I will write everyday, so what? If the station disagrees, so be it-that is their right as it is mine to trash this human piece of garbage. fuck you too. |

Didn't say you didn't have the right to do it, nor the right to hate him. I don't give a fuck who you hate. That's your business. I don't even care if you complain about him and hate him on here. That's the whole point of this place. But you don't find it creepy as hell that you would take the time to write a station and tell them to fire a guy who you could simply ignore for the rest of your life? You would rather get him to lose his job, than just ignore him? If his existence really has that effect on you, that's EXTREMELY sad. Hate the guy all you want, but writing the station is fucking weird as hell. It's scary, actually. Real scary. And full disclosure: I'm not a North backer. I'm not a huge fan, but I don't hate him. I do hate PLENTY of people in the media but it just chills my bones to think people could care about a radio host this much. Very creepy. |

They employ him and should know what some people, me, feel about them putting the halfwit on the air? What is so scary to you? Free speech? Maybe they should hear from people who refuse to watch the station to find out why the audience is so small. Please explain why you fear free expression. |

I'm actually a huge proponent of free speech. Like I said, I absolutely believe you should have the right to say whatever crosses your mind. But just because you say it, doesn't mean it isn't stupid or fucked up. I understand totally that feedback is an extremely important aspect of any type of business... my entire job is focused on Customer Loyalty, Customer feedback and Customer Relationship Management. And a lot of times, unedited and pure feedback can be helpful... but more times than not, level-headed fully thought out and productive/constructive feedback is what actually helps a business. When you look at feedback, everyone knows you throw out the 1s and the 10s and focus on the middle ground. That's where the truly important and constructive feedback is. Writing a TV station and telling them to "Get that POS of the air" is not going to provide them the relative feedback I assume you included in your email. As for the 'creepy' aspect of it... I wouldn't at all find it creepy if you were simply submitting feedback for the benefit of the TV station. If you were writing them in order to better the product of CSN, I would commend you. However, this is clearly not your motive... instead your motive is to harm North and get him fired. This is why I find it creepy. Instead of just ignoring the wind bag, you felt it necessary to attempt to get him fired... which is clearly derived from your hatred of the man. In my opinion (free speech, right?), that's fucked up. |

If he's a consumer of the product then he most definitely has a right to write the company and voice his concerns about the product they are putting out. Remember, a radio job is a privilege, not a right. |

Chris, would you agree that some (if not most) of the former webio guys have some resentment towards North and BeBe for not doing their due diligence? Most of these people that lost jobs are back on Monster and Career Builder while North falls back on MITM. He'll be showing those ugly teeth and shrilling that Peter Griffin like voice tomorrow as if nothing happened. |

I don't quite get that...must be his good buddy or something. Chet was a little more complimentary of North and thinks he will land on his feet and be able to raise funds one way or another. |

Post subject: | Re: csnchicagowebsite@comcastsportsnet.com |
They have to, spmack. I know Chet didn't sound like he had any ill will towards Northy, but if you caught the podcast, Boom Boom said just that. For guys like Webby who put their faith in North, I would imagine that relationship has to be over or hanging on by a string. But having a buddy who knows David Hernandez (and knowing a few of his 'investors'), I know what type of guy he is (I think most people do now), and he is clearly the bad guy. Berns points out that if North knew what was going on, he is most certainly in deep shit... however from everything I have heard, North had no clue. Again, not saying you can't blame North for not doing his research... you can. But he doesn't deserve the lion's share of the blame. 9 out of 10 new businesses fail, right? So North and everyone else had to know that there was a large chance this would be unsuccessful. Hernandez clearly was the money, and North clearly the guy running the show. So as long as the money was flowing in, I don't see why North had any reason to worry. I understand the whole "if it's too good to be true, it probably is," but that's usually difficult to recognize and react to while you are living it. Much easier in hindsight. Again... not letting North off the hook at all. But in my opinion, most of this blame falls on Hernandez. |

I know a guy who invested with David, and so when he was contacted by some other investors to file the civil suit, some details were leaked prior to them hitting the newspaper. So basically, people just had heard of the FBI raid of Next Step and knew shit was going to hit the fan. Tell you one rumor I had heard: the number of hits Hernandez reported for CSW in that article last week was not even close to the actual numbers. But I think that was just assumed right after the lies spewed from his mouth. |
