About a month or so ago, Steve Anthony went on vacation for a couple of weeks or so, but it seems he's overstayed the vacation (at least on CFNY). Naturally, nobody seems to acknowledge he even existed. I've probably missed all the news in the papers (which I occasionally read)... any scuttlebut out there...I know some out there were making some noises about CFNY messing around with its format a few months ago. Many thanks. bryon@telly.on.ca -- Bryon Johnson , Don Mills, Ontario Canada bryon@telly.on.ca

Well it seems that he has been sacked. His replacement is being made to do the same dumb gags he did. Uughh. >I've probably missed all the news in the papers (which I occasionally read)... >any scuttlebut out there...I know some out there were making some noises about >CFNY messing around with its format a few months ago. CFNY goes up in front of the CRTC in May to gain approval for the transfer of ownership from Selkirk to McLean-Hunter. Apparently a number of complaints have been lodged against the current direction of the station. There's still time to send your letter, send it by registered mail or courier to CFNY, then send a copy, with the registration slip to the CRTC in Ottawa. Try to aviod "It was my favorite station and now they changed it" that won't carry much wieght, they'll be looking for letters expressing concern over the loss of diversity in the Toronto airwaves, or causing increased pressure on alternative licensees such as CKLN and CIUT to increase the content of "commercial" music to fill the niche CFNY has vacated. -- Norman Soley - The Communications Guy - Ontario Ministry of the Environment Until the next maps go out: moegate!soley@ontenv.UUCP if you roll your own: uunet!{attcan!ncrcan|mnetor!ontmoh}!ontenv!moegate!soley I'd like to try golf, but I just can't bring myself to buy a pair of plaid pants

Yippy! You mean he's actually gone ?! Yippy! Hopefully he's gone back to CHOM in Montreal. CFNY has gone downhill ever since they stop broadcasting from Brampton and moved over to the CN Tower.
