Default Did Rosenblum Abandon Us?

Not to bring it up to be a jerk or anything but have you noticed all the VJ threads and the KGO sale thingy and no Rosenblum......I know he has said before he was not going to post anymore but he was getting alot of flack and didn't want to deal with it I guess. But now its serious.....stations being sold......the VJ model not working (which we all have expressed here to him and others)....and now he is nowhere to be found. Any word on his whereabouts?

Why are you asking "abandon us?" Were you affected by his VJ's movement. MR. is still going strong on his blog and even thou after several set backs he wasn't talking much about the VJ?s in broadcasting looks like he is giving it another push with the same old tune, mainly to recruit students. Don't worry, Michael will not go away, things would be very dull if he does. All those at the opposite end of VJ quality should be very grateful to MR, after seeing what the options are our clients are now appreciating what we do for them more than ever.

Default The truth about what happened to Rosenblum

Its kind of a sad story really,
Rosy started consulting for the medical industry. He was trying to convince hospitals that they did not need both doctors and nurses. And then he had a medical emergency and had to go to one of the hospitals that he had consulted for..... well instead of getting fixed up, the one-man-band doctor/nurse accidentally gave him fake tits...... soooo now he looks even more like Janet Reno.

I merely used the word abandoned as a verb for the site itself.....he used to be all over this thing spouting his rhetoric but since the trouble....vanished. Perhaps I didn't quite fully explain what I meant in my orginal thread post.

Smile Professional Responsibility

Why don't we take shots of young kids in sexual abuse cases?

Why do our audience stick with our bulletin and trust us to get it right?

What about young children - why do we get parental permission first?

What about stopping your junior shooters from standing in the middle of the freeway?

Or sending security out to watch you back at a violent gang related court sentencing?



Responsibility is a tough rap, I hope the Professor likes his medicine!

The VJ whatsit has seemingly stemmed the bleeding at stations where they'd been told to save money, but too soon, it looks as they are forced into closure or amalgamation.

You wanna save more money, get a piggy bank, start a swear jar, don't tell me you're the future of photojournalism.

What we do never changes......
Who said that again?

Speaking of stations which embraced Michael's VJ claims...rumors have it WKRN is laying off employees. It's always sad to see people lose their jobs but those actions do not seem to indicate WKRN is a successfully run news operation with a bright future for anyone still there.

Sorry...I guess I"m a little behind the times as I notice the other thread here mentioning the same lay off news at WKRN and other Young stations.

Not to fear...here's Rosenblum's latest venture..

http://www.travelchannel.com/Academy/About_Us

For only $2500.00, you too can be a professional videographer. You MAY get some of your work aired on the Travel Channel (if it meets guidelines).
You WILL sign a release giving your likeness, voice, use of image ect.. to the Travel Channel, in perpetuity, to use as they see fit.

Basically it looks...may not actually be, however reading this release it looks as if Travel Channel and Rosenblum are having people pay them to be in a class, and shooting some sort of show on being in that class.

So you pay $2500 to be on tv, on a show about learning to shoot tv?

I've been wondering the same thing, where is he? He's found the time to post when in South America so I guess he's busy somewhere.

Thanks for the correction.....my mind drifted because I met a KGO reporter ten minutes before I posted. Sorry.

Of to his next Con job I see. If you were lured into MR's magical world of VJ's, shame on MR, if you are a sucker and fall for scheme, shame on you.
