  After a brief review of the puzzling light scalar meson sector of QCD, a
brief summary will be given of a paper concerning radiative decays involving
the light scalars. There, a simple vector meson dominance model is constructed
in an initial attempt to relate a large number of the radiative decays
involving a putative scalar nonet to each other. As an application it is
illustrated why $a_0(980)-f_0(980)$ mixing is not expected to greatly alter the
$f_0/a_0$ production ratio for radiative $\phi$ decays.
