From the Bhopal gas tragedy to Facebook and Bloomsbury, a history of corporate culpability
What ties Warren Anderson, the CEO of Union Carbide when the Bhopal Gas Tragedy occurred, to Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO of Facebook, and Nigel Newton, the CEO of Bloomsbury? It is the belief that they need not follow the same standards for their business in India that they do in Western democracies, writes Hartosh Singh Bal.

“#PwC’s former head of international tax, Peter-John Collins, had been enlisted by the government to help design new laws cracking down on multinational tax avoidance.
‘[He] made comments to colleagues that actions and decisions were "ok in practice, until the ATO gets grumpy and figures out the joke".’

More thoughts on the #Fox #Dominion settlement, to the extent that we know so far.
Reading here some of the comments on the settlement that mostly range disappointment of the "known" terms to silver lining statements that, yes Fox did lose. Someone wrote about their disappointment saying "I feel cheated".
I guess that I fall into the disappointed and cheated category like apparently many people who've commented.
I think that I know why.
Many of us have a view that a number of important things are broken in this country. Fox and corporate America are one of those things. And we viewed Dominion and the evidence that we've seen as a chance to actually fix/address a core problem, in this case corporate lies purely for base profit. And that fix could be a consequential punishment for Fox and a forced change in behavior.
Now with the settlement it looks like that possible core problem fix is gone. If so, it's another sad outcome for this country.

From the #corporate America getting away with egregious and #criminal behavior with a slap on the wrist topic, a paltry a $787.5 million dollar settlement in the #Fox News #Dominion case has been announced.
Unless Fox management, including #Murdoc, and all of the on-air staff are forced to publicly state on camera and broadcast several times that they knowingly lied about Dominion and the election, then Fox won and democracy and journalism will have lost.
"FOX REPORTS SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 2023 REVENUES OF $4.61 BILLION ... The Company reported quarterly net income of $321 million". Further reporting, "Cash and cash equivalents, end of period [Six Months Ended December 31 2022]" of $4 billion dollars. From a Fox Quarterly Report - https://investor.foxcorporation.com/static-files/3b2bdb74-8ebe-4173-9f0f-ac18831ff094
Again, a slap on the wrist.
To quote the great Adrian Monk, "I hope I'm wrong now, but I don't think so."

Today in Labor History February 14, 1989: Union Carbide agreed to pay $470 million to the Indian government for damages it caused in the 1984 Bhopal disaster. Over 550,000 people were injured (according to official reports) and over 8,000 died. That sum comes to roughly $800 per victim or their families.

We can make corporations do whatever we want: "Just the threat of revoking limited liability, without which no prudent investor would invest, would shake share prices. Merely a murmur should cause shareholder action."

Wage theft is an incredibly common, incredibly under-reported story. It's a crime that's accelerated as economic segments have filled with VC-funded startups that are used to breaking the law and getting away with it due to lax enforcement. #CorporateCrime
