Raise the Hammer

Speaking of CHML, I will share with you a set of emails between myself and that jacka$$ Scott Thompson. Sorry in advance, its a tad long but funny:

Dear CHML, I am 42 years old. I am a life long resident of Hamilton: born and raised and currently living on the west Mountain. I have listened to your radio station since I first remembered listening to a radio. I am deeply proud of my hometown and would defend it to my last breath. I wrote to your station back in the summertime expressing my disappointment and disdain for the manner of your reporting on the stadium issue and your obvious bias toward the Tiger-Cats. Basically and simply, I warned you back in the summer to report this issue accurately or permanently lose me as a listener. Obviously, the sponsorship of the Tiger-Cats is much more important to you then reporting the entire truth and I cannot stand it any longer. From this point forward I will be not be tuning into your station. I shall get my information from other sources both for local and otherwise. No response is required on your behalf as I doubt you truly care about anyone who doesn’t sponsor your station or whom expresses an opinion other than what the Tiger-Cats want the public to hear. I just thought that perhaps maybe, you were keeping track of who in this fine city hasn’t completely swallowed the Cool-Aid hook, line and sinker. If there is such a count being kept, put me down as in favor of my city and not my beloved Tiger-Cats. I never thought my city would be held hostage by a greedy CFL owner who thinks he is owed everything because he ‘rescued’ a sports franchise and have THE radio station in the city back him blindly regardless of the facts.

If we don't take it Burlington gladly will....(or will find others to invest, who will not invest in Hamilton due to council)

Hamilton loses again... We need a council with a better education than grade 10...

Thanks John.... Scott

p.s. it makes me laugh when people say we take 'any' side in a debate...(Ticats, in this case) It's simply not true and is a great excuse for laziness. If you really believe this,it's easy to see why you think the way you do. Go back to your nap.

Spent the morning listening to Oldies 1150, very refreshing but I will admit its going to take some time to get used to not having CHML on , I will miss it but the deed is done and I just can’t listen to your station anymore. As for helping you fill time on your show, ‘no thanks’, as I said, I’m done with Hometown radio. Cheers and happy New Year you (I was missing you on my drive home)

John

I didn't think you had any facts.....Nor do the laughing stock who want to pass on free government money.

Hope you enjoyed your life in Hamilton in the 1960's! Oldies will help you stay in the past. No surprise there.

Only people who like "current" affairs tune into CHML.

Twist the night away! Happy New Year. Scott
