"Daddy they are being mean to me". <br /><br />Let's examine the job of a typical receptionist: Managing the calendar/ scheduling for the office with the boss, vets calls as they come through, sending out invoices.... ha ha. Brian Eno is a producer, at best Jeremy is an organizer.<br /><br />Intelligent or not, he's a neo-liberal bigot. Working in a foul and loathsome industry, spouting hate and ad-hoc ill-informed opinion couched as expert opinion, mostly preaching to the, devout and brain dead, converted.<br /><br />Anyone with an appreciation for music would not waste radio time with that shit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257493550531569180.post-2199617947798897122014-03-15T10:57:15.616+13:002014-03-15T10:57:15.616+13:00Jeremy Parkinson is a person of little or no relev...Jeremy Parkinson is a person of little or no relevance.;.. he succumbs easily in debate requiring any integrity.<br /><br /> The above comment posted by a stealthy observer indicating the tendency of Parkinson to abort or restrict any persons that justifiably disagrees with his (generally bias) opinion is undeniably true.<br /><br /> Parkinson seeks shelter in surrounding himself with entities he thinks will -- 'shall we say lick his stamps'. <br />Fortunately personalities such as Jeremy Parkinson should be digested for what minuscule taste they offer!!

Anything which criticises his bosses or his bosses' views he rails against. It amazes me that champions of the free market would not simply accept they are not commercially competitive and give up the frequency to someone who is, rather than accepting their mates' help. Unbelievable.<br /><br />A fair wage is a basic human right. Of course it is affordable. What a stupid, ignorant thing to claim.<br /><br />I can't say I disliked Jeremy personally, but I certainly dislike his views.<br /><br />And yep, having worked for some years in the industry, it is a glorified receptionist.

A Talkback producer is not a receptionist. He formulates the day's programme with the host and vets calls as they come through as well as playing commercials and monitoring news breaks.<br /><br />He is an intelligent human being with a great appreciation of music. He has travelled widely and is something of an expert on India.<br /><br />What are your qualifications?<br /><br />This has been his Dad speaking.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
