ynopsis

Don Angel is the small business owner of the Worldwide Business Group, a business he's trying to grow. This business includes publishing of dubious niche magazines such as "Feelin' Great", "Railway Union Monthly" and "Music, Music, Music, Music" - mere vehicles used by smooth-talking Don to sell advertising space to unsuspecting businesses. He’s just hired Ray Leonard, a down-and-out former journalist for The Australian, as his senior journalist and sole employee. [http://www.tvtonight.com.au/2008/08/airdate-very-small-business.html]
