Even though I realize the damage to the economy and unemployment when companies fail, I cannot deny that I love seeing corporate bigwigs get what's coming to them when they manipulate and back stab their way to "success".
Several years ago I read Tom Perkins' self-serving book about the spying scandal at Hewlett-Packard. I felt dirty and not too sympathetic to Perkins and his explanation of what happened. Something about me isn't very willing to give rich businessmen the benefit of the doubt.
Now, along comes THE BIG LIE: Spying, Scandal, and Ethical Collapse at Hewlett-Packard by Anthony Bianco. According to the author's website what happened at HP was "a corporate version of Watergate: a bone-headed covert conspiracy followed by an audacious cover-up."
Maybe it's time for me to get the awful distaste out of my mouth and get the real story.
