Goldberg Goes Off

On CVB in the post that the title links to. Fear the spear:

"To hear from Dennis Roche, the supposed 'leader' of the prime marketing organization for the city, say crap like 'this is not helpful' pisses me off! He said of Harvey, 'Having someone of his notoriety, an insider, portray his town like that, it's not a good thing.' In the movie, Harvey was adamant about NOT LEAVING CLEVELAND when he was finally found Joyce, the love of his life. I think that that says volumes especially in contrast to the negative images." "What I want to know Mr. Head-of-Greater-Cleveland-Convention-and-Visitors-Bureau, is why I listened to so many compliments about my adopted city in and around the state of Michigan, yet did NOT SEE ONE TV ad, billboard, or heard a radio ad that promoted, invited, or extolled the virtues of coming to Cleveland. Huh? Why? And why no sooner did I cross the Lorain County line, did I see a billboard for Detroit as I listened to a Cleveland radio station with ads inviting me to Toronto? Oh BTW the first commericial on TV when I got home was for an easy drive down to West Virginia."

To paraphase Mike in a Young Ones episode, "That was a highly articulate outburst, Steve".
