Chinese whispers, whatever you want to call it. Remember my entry Local notes from yesterday, where I mentioned that an event, showcasing local musical talent, suffered a near-zero attendance on account of an alleged cancellation by local radiostation Isles FM? Well, they deny cancelling it. The organisers of the festival, who initially accused the station of broadcasting a false cancellation, now say it is down to local rumour. Oh dear. Looks like I have to be a tad cautious with my sources of local news! But then, I'm in good company. Regional rag the Press & Journal also ran the story.

Hmmmmm too bad there's not a recording of the stations programming for that day. Linda in WA
ReplyDeleteme thinks someone doth protest too much LOL
ReplyDeleteit appears to be the case that there actually are recordings. It seems that stations have to keep recordings for some weeks after broadcast. Seems to be the story that was wrong. A wee bird tells me that the station were supposed to be having an interview that afternoon with the headline band Skerryvore and that due to ferry not sailing the station announced that the INTERVIEW was cancelled. No mention made of the festival event.
