She is not alone in being abused by the management there. Shaun Brown and his cronies should learn that just because you run a commercial station doesn't mean that you have to start acting like Eddie Bloody Maguire. In fact I would argue that if you want a successful TV station, acting like Eddie Maguire is the worst thing you could do.</p> I worked with Mary at SBS for many years and I am apalled at the way she has been treated.

Well Mr Sheehan I didn’t realise that a 1/20 share of a TV audience was all that bad (especially considering that commercial stations and even the ABC would have much more money pumped into them for production and advertising intents), and as for people of the LOTE-kind getting Foxtel, does he realise how annoying it is to pay for 35 stations only to find yourself watching the umpteenth rerun of Whose Line Is It Anyway cuz there’s SFA on?
