Bran...Brandon Mercer is nothing like Mathew Keyes. Brandon is one of the most honest, hard working, ethical guys in the business. He left a small job at KPIX for a big job at SF Gate. There is nothing more to this than that. No mud in your eye or hard feelings. Just a good smart guy going for a bigger gig. I'm sure Bruno congratulated him. Now, whether SF gate is a smart career move is another question. But Brandon is smart enough to know the risks. And if anyone knows how to power through adversity, it's Brandon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-1345371739051860782015-07-01T09:19:24.291-07:002015-07-01T09:19:24.291-07:00Ha!

The same Mathew Keyes who was indicted by the US Attornies Office for hacking the Tribune Broadcasting Web Site. Keyes pulled several other misdeeds on his way out the door. Brandon Mercer is not much better. KPIX knew some of that. This is also Mud-in-your-Eye for Bruno who took a chance based on a previous relationship.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-57626875074935452972015-07-01T07:44:09.515-07:002015-07-01T07:44:09.515-07:00If a manager overseeing a company's website an...If a manager overseeing a company's website announces a job offer at a competitor's website, they don't let them work for two more weeks. <br /><br />That's how it works at every TV station, and definitely at every radio station I've worked in.<br /><br />Lieberman is just making a headline out of a standard industry protocol. <br /><br />I think that was the point....
