A Holiday Greeting Dug Out Of The Auto Channel Archives

As originally published in 2001(plus a few additions)

Christmas has always been a happy time… a time of reflection and thanksgiving;

All around me…warm feelings in the cold of winter. And kind words that can reach across miles and even years.

Well this year will be no different… except I will dispense the warm feelings and kind words:

To all those of you, who have worked so hard these past six years(now 10 years) to help make The Auto Channel as good as it could be … and help it live up to our collective expectations and common dreams...with too little financial remuneration, but with enormous amounts of camaraderie and hopefully the gratitude of millions of auto nut surfers around the world…

I thank you.

To those advertisers who supported us this past year…

I thank you;

To those vendors who have been patient and committed to the vision…

I thank you;

In the spirit of the season …I wish you all peace and tranquillity and a box under a tree that contains exactly what you actually want, in exactly the correct size.

Happy Holidays

Bob Gordon, President and CO-Founder The Auto Channel

Editors Note: Now a couple of words from Milton Snide, The Auto Channel's Andy Rooney:

I cannot let this warm and fuzzy time go by without a few choice thoughts for our detractors...bahh humbug...as Lance Crain(doesn't everyone knows who he is) said to the boss at the NADA convention a couple of years ago..."are you guys still around?".
Very perceptive Lance( you are a journalist)...wake up auto marketing professionals The Auto Channel can help you do what's right for your brand...at a reasonable $30 CPM.

Happy Holiday, yours truly;
Milton Snide.
