Being interviewed for the nightly news
A group of us from JWT were out to lunch at Champps today and FOX News interviewed a few of us about the current hullabaloo regarding Fantasy Football.
Apparently, four guys got fired from their job for participating in Fantasy Football at work. Their company has a strict policy against gambling (obviously NOT an advertising/marketing firm!) and these guys got terminated due to it. SUCKS to be them.
Anyway, I don’t play but certainly don’t see any harm in it as long as it doesn’t interfere with people getting their jobs done. So that’s what I told the news.
Will I get 15 seconds of fame (or even 5 seconds)? I don’t know – it was footage for the 4 o’clock news and I’ll be working — not watching tv!
Last Chance To See – A Search For Animals On The Edge Of Extinction
BBC's Last Chance To See website
Twenty years ago, naturalist Mark Carwardine and writer Douglas Adams went on a journey to seek out the Northern White Rhino, the Kakapo, the Yangtze River Dolphin, the Megabat, the Amazonian Manatee, the Gorilla and the Komodo Dragon. This selection of strange and amazing creatures represented just a tiny fraction of the endangered animals on the planet that face imminent extinction.
