Dow stoops to a new low



Not to be outdone by the meanness of Nestle, Dow has decided to attack any protests that reveal darker side of the company. Not content with initiating the shutdown of website hosting for lots of groups they are now suing Bhopal survivors - the very people they should be helping. But cracking down on protest, rather than dealing with the real problem only makes a corporation look more stupid. The story can now be seen on adbusters, wired and slashdot.

Will they ever learn that PR and spin cannot hide the skeletons in the closet? Thankfully most of the public can see the real wood through the forests of PR.

Comments

has anyone here read "trust us, we're experts"? any thoughts?

Can you believe Dow's corporate "free speech" comment.

And can you believe they have an area called DowEthics - that is also a parody in itself.
