Re: We haven\'t won yet: latest (10/19) cliff\'s notes on AP scandal
AP’s behavior is consistent with a company that has engaged in some fairly serious misconduct. At first, they vigorously denied that any wrongdoing occurred. Then, when the evidence showed otherwise, they attempted to minimize their guilt by tailoring their story to the disclosed facts. They remind me of Pete Rose.
“I never bet on sports.”
Evidence to the contrary.
“Okay, I bet on sports, but not baseball.”
Evidence to the contrary.
“Well, I bet on baseball, but not my team.”
Evidence to the contrary.
“All right, you got me: I bet on my team, but only to win.”
My guess is that the folks at AP bet on their team as well.
