However this plays out, more than likely Jian will work with some local publication of some sort. I don't think he's all that, but he'll milk some local newspaper or local radio station who won't mind having an ex-CBC guy on their roster. Question is which advertisers will back those stations/publications up?
The question of is this guy going to recover like the rest? I don't think so. A guy like Tyson was in a way a victim of a brutal upbringing. At his core he was seen as a nice guy who was in a brutal sport and raised to be an animal. All those other guys were also in an era where social media didn't take over. The difference between all these examples above and Jian, is that Jian came across as a nice guy and behind the scenes appears to be a sociopathic rat and manipulator (to put it politely). He's a different breed then the rest because people trusted him more, but not necessarily as a celebrity. He's a C-list radio host.
He appears to have an evil second life but he's disposable as a celebrity. Little chance he'll recover to the level he did.
