Dh just told me that disney has warned investors of a potential loss of revenue from the Pooh case. I will be so sad if there is no more Pooh.
Cutthroat, no doubt. Unethical, well, that gets a little hairy, because "ethical" is a moving target. More importantly, perhaps, "ethical" is a meaningless concept in business. If your lawyers can beat back anyone who says it's illegal, and it makes you money, business is for it. Ethics don't enter into it; it's difficult to quantify such quaint notions in a spreadsheet cell.are they cutthroat & unethical as well?
I personally believe this is the key to understanding the shredding. Paying fines can be a pain, but if you have to pay a fine to ensure that breach of contract or fraud cannot be proven, allowing you to keep your lucrative license, spreadsheet ethics would say that's the way to proceed.the Judge in the case has already stated that "if breach of contract or fraud was proven at trial, the Slesingers would be free to terminate the contract and seek a home elsewhere for Winnie the Pooh.
