Well, since the station won't play the tapes--even for reporters--we have no way of knowing what North really said. So the notion that this incident is "nonsense" is strictly your unverifiable opinion.

_________________

This whole notion of misquoting is moronic. As if the difference between the words "intelligence" and "talent" removes the ignorance from North's words.

Well gee KS - I don't have an hour to read your whole post right now, but I'll see if any of my other screen names have the time.
But wait! What if I'm really KS? And I'm just responding to my own post?!

To quote Reno 911: "White people with issues go to therapy; all others go directly to jail." Keeping Score, if you're white, you need therapy.

I stopped when he was criticizing people for having way too much time in their hands and I realized his post would translate to about 15 pages copied and pasted into Word

These are the ones that go on and on about what North and Jen are doing on Saturday's.

That reminds me. It's still strange

Mike just rattled off everything that is so great about, what else? Mke North.

Comparing himself to Letterman and Imus.

So Mike if everything you do is so great, inlcuding making money, let me just ask the simple question of Why are the planning to get rid of you?

If eveything you say is true, how great your are and how much money you make them and how they are just beancounters, then that leaves only one plausible explanation of why they want to get rid of you.

You just must be a bigger ass in person then you are as an employee.

I dunno...you say if you come on here and defend North you'll be ostracized.

I've seen a lot of positive comments about North- about how he could be a very good host, just the format and co-hosts he's chosen have brought him down. He needs someone of equal billing to stand up with him. I don't think it's 100% negative

SFA, the North controversy no longer focuses on the largely semantic distinction between "talent" and "intelligence", as Hawkeye makes clear in another thread:



Since Agase apparently won't even play the North tapes for reporters, though, there's no way to verify the veracity of the above account.

I'm a North hater and damn proud of it. As far as I'm concerned, he and Bernstien killed my favorite station. I want it back and North cant be a part of that. So yes, if I have an opportunity to write Mary Mitchell or contact sponsors regarding Norths racial inflammatory comments, so be it. He's not entertaining. He's an embarrassment to Chicago sports fans because he speaks for "us" UNDENIABLY!

Screw Mike, Bebe, Ike South and anyone who stands up to defend this clown. Whether he was misquoted or not, he's still a tool and EVERYONE knows it. Just the ones he lines pockets with cash dont or wont say how they really feel.

Let the Northless SCORE countdown continue...................
