Scandals Are Giving Greed A Bad Name, Say Business Execs
Leaders of corporate America admitted today that greed is starting to show the strain of months of business scandals and is suffering from a severe image problem.
Many of the nationâs CEOs, CFOs, COOs and their two to three sympathizers have therefore rushed to speak out and reestablish the shimmering reputation greed once had in corporate America.
"Enough is enough. Time was when corporate greed was held in high esteem. I canât remember the last time I heard anyone say anything good about fraud, chicanery or trickery," said James R. Cretin III, the president and CEO of Spinron, the worldâs leading producer of upbeat press releases.
"Nowadays you canât drill for oil in some pristine wilderness or add a couple of zeros to your financial statements without some goody two-shoes jumping up and down saying how evil you are. It almost makes you want to try another profession like becoming head of PR for Rep. James Traficant," added Cretin, who is leading the drive to polish the image of corporate greed.
While business leaders acknowledge that they face an uphill battle, they maintain it is nothing some envelopes accidentally placed under a few tables canât fix.
