Cartoon Network Rocked
I’ll bet they never saw this coming during the initial marketing meeting…
Jim Samples resigns as head of Cartoon Network.

Jim Samples resigns as head of Cartoon Network.
Has to be one of the stupidest things I have ever heard of…
Yes, truly…
A friend said he was impressed that Samples took responsibility and I see that point of view, but unless I don’t know the whole story, I don’t see that he did anything *wrong* and I don’t understand why he resigned. Maybe he had to anyway, but it was a mistake, not malicious and I don’t think it could have been foreseen.
Hi Tropicana Blue,
yeah, I tend to agree with you. Its nice to see someone taking responsibility at a time when most people simply avoid it like the plague – so, I have to give kudos to him for that. But, unless this was all premeditated (which I highly doubt) I don’t think it warrants a resignation.
While I don’t like a lot of the directions that Cartoon Network has gone of late, I do wish Mr. Samples the best of luck in his next endeavor.
