"May I just say that I've just developed
a man crush on Al?"
a man crush on Al?"
-- Anonymous@7:14 p.m., commenting on USA Today Founder Al Neuharth's newly emerged letter to Dave Hunke, criticizing the publisher's controversial decision to publish a Jeep ad that covered the front page in July.
Dave Hunke has publicly ridiculed Big Al at several of our meetings. Mr. Hunke has very little respect for other senior executives and leaders in the company and it shows. There have been times when he disparaged Bob Dickey's retail sales team and Dave Lougee's head of business development in his company-wide meetings.
ReplyDeleteIt is about time Dave Hunke got a taste of his own medicine.
Why would Hunke get a taste of his anything but his favorite beverage? Ad pages are falling and he got a bonus last year. Circulation is tumbling, too. He's cutting 9% of staff this year and has no viable transformation plan that he can or The Chosen Ones can articulate. When he's finally shown the door, we'll still be paying the price.
