    No, I don't know, which is why I asked for a definition. Why is this such a big deal?

    Not until someone reveals the code words for the true meaning of the code words, a "Black Mike Scott."

    Gracious. Talk about stretching something out. OK, here you go. What I am imagining NYKnight is trying to say is that like Michael Scott, GH could be in a little over his head at times. Stories of falling asleep at his desk (which Michael Scott did), having someone sit in a "penalty box" if they didn't get a sports trivia question correct at staff meetings, etc. But also like Michael Scott, GH did some good things and always championed the company he worked for.

    As someone mentioned earlier, it was Jeff Price who sent SN into a further spiraling downfall. A lot of bad decisions and money wasted, left a blazing trail of layoffs and poor production by the time he left.

    I'm sure Garry will find work somewhere else, though I doubt it will be as prestigious a job as editor-in-chief of SN was (or once was, I guess is the better wording).
