Trouble at the Mill for WIN?

Wollongong is really just a metropolitan ‘Batemans Bay’.

I wouldn’t expect much more from WIN Television than a bunch of stoned monkeys working on 1960’s ex-Soviet broadcast equipment.

Plus, with all the millions of dollars that the Gordon family is keeping for themselves for complete Australian media ownership and Carribean fortresses, WIN can hardly afford decent equipment or reliable staff.

I wonder when they are going stop broadcasting the news from the old Hi-fi section of Cash Converters

I guess many years ago SGS would have been considered eccentric?

Even today, the difference between being labelled Crazy or Eccentric is just money\respect.

“There’s a crazy old woman who lives in a fibro shack on Mt Ainslie, she might throw a cat at you if you get too close, though.”
vs
“There’s an eccentric old woman who lives in the castle on Squirthington Heath and her family own the factory which employs 150 locals. She’ll probably try to give you a high-velocity cat if you try and visit, though.”

I got to get me some of them News shite.

heh heh

You heard it here first folks, Jessica Good is a drug pusher!

Jessica just needs to peddle faster

Given the the problems were not just news related, they could have been caused by a link failure. My guess is between Gong and Canberra. For those who don’t know, Win News goes to Gong first in a round trip to get to air in Canberra. There’s not much anyone can do about those problems until a tech is called out. There are some big bushfires in the southern Highlands. They may have contributed to the problem.

and the heat from the high temps in NSW may have overloaded a couple of grids.

Yeah, we all give Sam a hard time, but I really think he’s pretty harmless.

Maybe WIN should stop buying their equipment from Dick Smith?

Samuel Gordon Stewart bio from GrodsCorp: http://www.grods.com/proud-to-be-samuel/

Samuel’s comment section was once a goldmine of pure comedy.

Cheers skid. I’ve just had a read through. Initially I was confused as SGS seesm failry articulate when he posts on RA but that URL puts a lot of stuff into perspective. Seems to me that SGS is simply unique. The world needs more unique (and harmless) people like that.

and the bio comments are from people who know him. many aren’t very flattering. I never knew what he looked like. now i understand all.
