Candid Comment - Video Edition - Lisa Laflamme Dismissal
The the storm surrounding the dismissal of Lisa Lflamme is not going away. Bell has begun to push back on the narrative that has been out there for at least 2 weeks that her age was the reason for the dismissal. Citing business decisions as the reason and stating that they do not intend to comment much further on the matter has only fueled the anger over how Bell did the deed. There have been hundreds of people let go from jobs in media, radio and TV is not what it used to be and frankly speaking it's blogs like this one and YouTube channels like the one I have that people view to get news more often than from radio and TV. Though it must be said that TV and Radio outlets still out match bloggers and YouTubers. The point is the audience is fragmented. And there is a case somewhat for the decision to let Lisa go. The problem is how it was done and also what is left. The speculation has caused Bell to lose the PR battle and the narrative and for Omar Sachedina who took the job it's not a blessing but a curse. Should he have taken the role, NO. I explain why in my commentary on this affair. And I outline what I think Bell needs to do to fix this. I will agree that to an extent Lisa made some errors as well, but overall....his is on Bell.
