Bermuda shorts are a Colonial concept, so those who are not Colonial minded don’t give a S!@# about them.

Why does Horseshoe Bay look so empty? Must be a winter shot. Couldn’t that have been a photo during the Cupmatch holiday festivities or any other summer day?

I am not so much concerned about the white socks. This is the premier of Bermuda representing his Country and is supposed to have on his unique fashionable style uniform. Where the heck is his Bermuda attire? Every Bermudian government official should have these in their suitcase and be ready for occasion like this.
I will personally stop at the English Sports Shop and purchase three pairs of Bermuda shorts with three pairs of knee high coordinating colors socks. I’d be sure to have them pressed and ready to go for his next trip… SMH

OMG….this has nothing to do with FOX vs. CNN, OBA vs. PLP or white socks. BTW Quest and Dunkley will be on the monthly CNNI Business Traveller program, not Quest Means Business. CNNI does not reach US audiences unless they use online TV. How did BTA justify this expenditure and how will they trace the return on investment?

Granted, it may have been a great opportunity to promote “Bermuda Shorts” but, this interview I would imagine had nothing to do with our local shorts

By: Onion Juice

Onion Juice — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 15:41:09 +0000

Too bad Quest don’t know anything about Jet Gate, Stone Gate and Harbor Front Gate that would have been an interesting interview.

I do not and will NEVER EVER support the OBA, as quite frankly all they are doing is carving up carried interests before 2017/2018.

However, our Premier on CNN, in Bermuda shorts, or white socks is a PHENOMENAL development for Bermuda and I can assure you the PR people close to former Premiers Smith, Scott, Brown Cox, and Cannonier would be kicking themselves that they got this right.

Since December 2017, along with AC this is the ONLY other accomplishment for BERMUDA that OBA has executed in a phenomenal way. Well done whoever put this together, above says BTA, I expect this, like AC2017, was achieved by Team Oracle making a call within their vast network, stemming from their reputation and success.

A major victory for Bermuda. Please no OpEds by OBA Surrogates on how much work and strategic planning went into this CNN appearance.

It’ll still likely be available on the Web, so should get a good reach into the US market, I imagine.

By: PBanks

PBanks — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 14:25:39 +0000

But this isn’t about Dr. Brown, it’s about Dunkley, who isn’t afraid to wear the shorts usually – could have been a good time to do so again… although I’m not holding it against him. Not a big deal in this case.

Fox News is nothing more than a funded work by and stooped right wing Republicans.

Sadly, everything becomes an opportunity for political point scoring, instead of a ‘Hey, Bermuda’s getting some exposure, sweet’.

By: PBanks

PBanks — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 14:19:07 +0000

It’s the usual “CNN is liberal garbage” thing, even though this broadcast has nothing to do with American politics.

People should be happy that Bermuda’s getting some exposure on a major cable news network and associated internet platforms, frankly.

By: Ed Case

Ed Case — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 14:15:13 +0000

I find it very difficult to believe that this will not find its way onto either of the two CNNs that are shown 24/7 in the USA.

Give the Milkman credit where it is due I’d say. CNN might not be real news but at least it isn’t Fox.

On another note, why is Minister of Tourism, Shawn Crockwell still receiving a full ministerial salary if the BTA have been delegated the responsibility to manage and increase tourism???.

On the white socks,, yeah, its a fashion NO, NO, lol, but it never stopped Michael Jackson from being the best at what he did,, lol,, just saying.

Talking about a Premier wearing “Bermuda Shorts”, when had you seen E.W.B. wear his Bermuda Shorts? I thought so, now, “go bark up another tree.”

White socks with a dark suit. Fashion mistake Mr Premier. Hope he gets it sorted out for next time.
On another note, if this was a BTA set up thing, why wasn’t the Minister of Tourism, Shawn Crockwell interviewed?
