Chris Thilk just pinged me to let me know about Nikki Finke’s post about how Cartoon Network boss Jim Samples has walked the plank after the whole Mooninites / Boston / Adult Swim ish.
As Portland Press Herald staffer Justin Ellis quotes local graphic designer Sean Wilkinson as saying, “I think we should give our government officials courses in pop culture instead of letting them go home and watch Tivo’d “Mad Money” and “Hannity and Colmes” all night.” Seriously. Not that I’m condoning obnoxious behavior by businesses, but the fact that this signage was all over other major cities for like a week kind of says something.
Steve Hall @ Adrants does the still RSS and permalink-less Matt Drudge (could anyone else have become more irrelevant to the bloggerati?) one better and prints, permanently, Samples’ resignation letter, or what we believe it is, at least.
[ed: in IM, Thilk says that “This isn’t so much falling on a sword as falling on the Lite Brite.” Props to Hasbro for making that comment possible]
