    It's disturbing. There are too many things that make these news and entertainment outlets vulnerable. If they're part of a big diversified conglomeration, the govt has multiple levers available to put pressure on them - regulatory pressure like holding up M&A, FCC fines, etc. Media from the...

    I have mixed feelings about this. One of the stated reasons for doing this is move the focus from short term results at the expense of long term strategy within companies. I worked for several public companies and can attest that this is a real thing. As a middle manager, I had multiple levels...

    So much shit will happen between now and April that none of this will be remembered.

    Careful what you say. This site could be next. Lawsuits, pressure on the hosting company, sponsors, Schwalbe boycott...

    I can't argue with that. There was a time that I resisted funding Bezos' umpteenth vacation home, but I've more or less given in. I may change my mind if he starts doing truly evil shit. I wouldn't own a Tesla because of Musk. Everyone wants to be rich, but people love to hate on the people who...
