Jian Ghomeshi

[fxh]

Never heard of him or the radio show before tonight. Now I'm drowning in it..

 

[Thruth]

He is news in Australia?

 

[doghouse]

He's been all over the news here for months.

Tacky Canadian.

 

[Thruth]

Interesting. Nothing about him here anymore

Yeah, well I mean it's tailed off now. But it started a few months ago.

 

[Thruth]

Yes. The case is still in discovery.

 

[fxh]

I was reading critiscm/discussion about the film of More Than 50 shades of bad writing and bdsm not ocbd sadly, when his case cropped up.

 

[Thruth]

Yes, his world collapsed before the film could paint his persuasion in a easily accessible, good for the masses light. Then he could have declared his love for the "hate-fuck" and could have been on Oprah.

His being born in England and living there until he was 7 undoubtedly created the monster that was to later be released

What is this thread about?

 

[Thruth]

Jian Ghomeshi, silly.

Canadian media elite radio star finally brought down to earth by non-elite women. More substance to the allegations than Bill Cosby.

If he has a trial date, he ain't elite.

 

[Thruth]

Well, elite is relative here.

Canada

Radio

Canada is relative. Elite is not.

 

[LKP]

Radio = not elite
Government = elite

thruth - what I was fascinated by - and I may be getting it all wrong here - is that this bloke was "famous" via a RADIO program on the ARTS that ran mid morning on weekdays?

Is that right?

Is that right?

Absolutely. On the public, government-funded network.but he would have international bigwigs from music, acting, literature, acting. He is famous for pudding off a billy bob Thornton by not asking him about his band and album.

He also was a mediocre rock artist from the 90's whom CBC listeners grooved to.

 

[fxh]

Who is listening then ............ or .......... Canadians don't work prior to lunch?

 

[Thruth]

not sure. but it was rebroadcast at 10 pm plus podcasts for downloads. people listen at work?
