Quote Of The Day

Here’s a servant of power who knows his job and does it well. David Gergen on CNN:

I think the bigger issue we’re going to fave in this internet world, is that there are huge international organizations in every sphere, and if you have an alienated employee, and there are lot of people in every organization who can tear the place apart, and they put out these kinds of documents. I think it’s going to be extremely hard to lead and to manage international organizations. The security of the United States rests on that but so does the whole corporate world. You talked about the trust deficit earlier in politics. You begin to have that trust deficit spreading to every other organization and you really could damage the workings of the international economy.

And that will put a lot of people out of work.

I don’t think he was talking about crooked bankers and greedy hedge fund managers, but in that regard, he might be right. If we’re lucky.
