He's as amoral as they come, a man who sells himself to the highest bidder to be a hard-nosed "manager". He got paid $1.76 million last year including a $400,000 bonus for the buying out of Sun Media, and then almost immediately reneged on the condition that newsrooms wouldn't be integrated into the PostMedia pap and "anger against anyone who isn't an avowed conservative" system. Probably highly illegal - do you think he cares or loses a moment of sleep over it? Nah. Many journos lost their jobs, but Old Godfrey did just fine, thanks all the same. The man has no ethics whatsoever and is obviously incapable of remorse.<br /><br />No, he's just going to bat for his owners who are a bit upset that PostMedia is sliding inexorably down the drain and that their investment is worth the square root of eff all. So, in the spirit of conservatives everywhere who are losing money, it's time to sidle up to the public trough and beg and plead for a handout when competition is too strong and their business is for all intents and purposes, bankrupt.<br /><br />You're ascribing normal human emotions to a man who couldn't care less about anyone other than himself. So, I'd say he's not even the teensiest bit embarassed about blathering about its all government's fault for not handing out enough advertising money. He's still using the occasion to blame government, it's not his fault, blah, blah, blah. The sad thing will be if anyone actually listens to his self-serving drivel. No matter what the outcome, there will be nasty articles in the National Post, count on it.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
