Not sure Rory as the new Channel 9 guy is a great move

Well that's it Rory Blyth is officialy part of the Channel 9 team. Nice chap but he's just a clown (for the good and the bad).

I am not quite sure it's a right thing to get him on board. Channel 9 has always been about the people in front of the camera not really the one behind (except for Robert laugh), and I am a bit worry that Rory could steal the show by being too 'clownesque', maybe more than Robert Scoble did.

Hopefully it won't be Channel Rory with Rory doing some silly stunts.

I met Robert in Ireland last year and it's clear that his passion for Channel 9 was really about the interviewees and not really about himself.

Anyway we'll see how this evolve and Rory good luck in your new adventure.

    Yeah, I'm sure he'll take that positively. :p Advice: When you diminish someone to a single faceted clown, and then try to encourage them, it doesn't work. Forget the good luck comment after the huge diss above. Doesn't work somehow. :)

  • PS. You are correct that Rory is horrible in front of a camera. He does manage to fail at being funny regularly. Your comment about him being a clown is true, although a bad one. I just thought it was funny that you pointed it out and then wished him luck.
