    His theory on Rogers (if I understand it correctly) is that he doesn't necessarily believe that there is any one person on the corporate chain telling personalities to be biased about the Blue Jays, but that many people sense that it'd be advantageous if they were biased.

    I would've been interested to hear what insights he had into Rogers anti-CFL slant, but the host never went down that path (I don't think Toronto Mike is a huge CFL fan, but not necessarily a hater either).

    I've heard parts of the Molitor story in the past.

    Totally agree, you know what the corporate culture is, nobody has to tell you and you act accordingly. Nothing needs to be said but sometimes there are phrases that you read between the lines.

    An example would be Vince MacMahon of the WWF years ago. He never told anyone to go out and get on steroids, he could probably testify to that in court. What he would say was "If only you were a little bigger". Message received and understood.

    I agree, Media personnel are expected to self-censure in terms of anything that conflicts with the corporate value system and its profits.
