When did I use derogatory language to comment on someone in a hospital gown? Maybe it was someone else on the station. If that's the case I'd be glad to talk to them and let them know of your concern. Please reply because I'd like to get this straightened out...you can even e-mail me if you'd like at cormac.macsweeney@rci.rogers.com or call teh station at 291-0066. Cormac Hi Barb,

I was very disappointed yesterday when you referred to the gentleman in the hospital gown with very dismissive, derogatory language. I've been lucky. I've never had any mental health problems, but I realize that anyone can at any time. You could, heaven forbid, be wandering around in a hospital gown on a major road one day. Any of us could. Please think first before dismissing the less fortunate the way you did yesterday. It was cruel. Try to be more compassionate. Barb Hi,

I really enjoy 660. I was very disappointed yesterday when you referred to the gentleman in the hospital gown with very dismissive, derogatory language.

I’ve been lucky. I’ve never had any mental health problems, but I realize that anyone can at any time. You could, heaven forbid, be wandering around in a hospital gown on a major road one day. Any of us could.

Please think first before dismissing the less fortunate the way you did yesterday. It was cruel. Try to be more compassionate.
