Truth is always stranger than fiction , we guess
Somebody please explain this idiot! This guy says he paid 400 bucks to have his satellite service disconnected so he could watch Ogden City's Godfrey propaganda channel, Comcast Channel 17? Nobody could be that stupid. Here it is anyway:
I love my Channel 17
View this magnificent video promotion, which was apparently sent to various Ogden City officials -- and thereafter surreptitiously "leaked" -- as per usual, to we Emerald City lumpencitizens -- your never-humble blogmeister being one among them.
Here's a copy of the email, which was evidently transmitted by channel 17 station manager "Bill," to various Godfrey lackeys, incorporating the ridiculous video linked above... once again... to the usual suspects:
From: IMAGINATION [mailto:imagination@ogden.cc]Perhaps "Bill" is a little insecure about the pure "crap" that he already broadcasts on Channel 17. Perhaps he doesn't believe his broadcasts "suck up" to Boss Godfrey "quite enough." Perhaps "Bill" would like to give Boss Godfrey a "hickey."

This is what we continue to hear when we are out doing productions for CH17.
We finally got it on camera. -Bill
In a world where many cities use their public access television stations to broadcast community events like city council meetings, (Ogden City doesn't), Ogden City's Channel 17 continues to be the Godfrey Propaganda Channel.
And poor old "Bill," who probably couldn't get a REAL job at a REAL TeeVee, station, even sweeping up the film debris in the after hours... is running the whole show on Ogden's Channel 17. It's perfect. "How brown is Bill's nose," we ask.
And then again... there's the moron in the video...
This situation is straight outta Kafka, we swear.
Many thanks to the gentle reader who sent us this red meat stuff.
It's now our gentle readers' "golden" opportunity to comment about this.
