Re: Geoff Cannell
From Manx Radio's site:
"Radio TT anchorman Geoff Cannell is hitting out at Manx Radio, claiming he has been sacked from the role for the 2004 meeting.

Management at the station are highlighting a conflict of interest between Mr Cannell being part of the commentary team, and acting as the Department of Tourism's Chief Press Officer for the event.

Mr Cannell admits there is a potential problem in undertaking the dual roles.

However, he says Manx Radio has not entered into discussions about solving the situation, and has treated him shoddily."

I heard an interview with the MD of Manx Radio this morning and his side of the story was certainly less sensational.

Basically, Geoff was being "stood down" as anchor man as he could not do two jobs 100% simultaneously. He did say that he was still hoping to negotiate a different role for Geoff, and it was unfortunate that discussions had gone public.

I don't "smell a rat" here, and I'm considered pretty sceptical.
