Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame: Mark Thompson (Radio Personality, DJ, formerly of The Mark & Brian Show)
“This man that you’re listening to, The Poorman, Jim, is the creator and the host of Loveline and I am so honored to be speaking with you. Well, the issue at hand with what you dealt with and what exists is that when you work for a company, it has been decided by somebody that whatever you do and whatever you create belongs to the company while you’re working for them. So Loveline basically is the property of the company that you worked for and you created that. That was yours. You built it. You thought of it. You hosted it, and you made it great. And the court said, well screw you, they own it because you created it while you worked for them.”
