Guy Dobson, group program director with Triple M owner Austereo, believes Anderson will prove "a good brand fit".
I won't be listening to Wil's show because I completely refuse to listen to Triple M.

However, the above statement makes me want to scream. I hate hearing about the brand, the branding and who/what fits in with the brand. People are not brands. Yet, you will hear some American sportsman or reality star talking about growing their persona as a brand. It disgusts me and it is has infected Australia. It is almost as bad as the celebrity who has his/her name trademarked. I can see trademarking your likeness, but your name?

Okay, rant over... sorry.
