Members Vee Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 Locher's first loyalty is to the parent companies, even after all these years, which I can comprehend but don't accept. He did PR for these soaps in their dying days, and many diehard fans recognize that. I don't think his former employment should preclude letting these actors and creatives be candid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 I could've gone on and on but I figured less is more. And yes Hogan supposedly is god. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 Agreed. Why not let them (who people came to watch in the first place) say whatever they want????? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wonderwoman1951 Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 alan states on his linkedin profile that he’s actively looking for PR work. so, it’s likely more than just loyalty to previous employers; it how what he’s doing now appears to prospective employers. and he may feel that allowing people to badmouth pgp could jeopardize future work. not at all suggesting that the criticism isn’t justified — just that his perspective and interest differ from fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) If that's what he's looking for, he shouldn't be hosting some of these. Based on past reactions we've seen from some guests when discussing BTS stuff, one of these days Locher may regret doing it up with some of these folks and ignoring the elephants in the room and that's all I'll say about that.

Members amybrickwallace Posted September 19, 2021 Members Share Posted September 19, 2021 Exactly. He also doesn't help his cause by not doing his homework and getting things wrong. He doesn't have to be a hard-hitting soap journalist, but it's not hard to read up on shows and their actors/characters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted September 20, 2021 Members Share Posted September 20, 2021 I doubt any of us think he could be anything close to a journalist. It would just be good if the actors and writers could talk freely, uninterrupted before he switches topics. I wouldn't have even minded if occasionally he were to interject, to challenge something that was said, if there were a contradiction, but then, like others said, that would require that he do more than cursory research, be able to dig deeper. In any case, like I said, if there were a full year if clear quality, complete episodes from the mid 80s, I would be watching that channel, and wouldn't care what he does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 20, 2021 Members Share Posted September 20, 2021 Very good points. The best episodes of his show are when the guests just pick up the narrative and run with it, almost as if he's not there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
