New Scrutiny for Liberty Media's Starz Deal

By GERALDINE FABRIKANT
New York Times, MARKET PLACE, September 23, 2003

Several analysts contend that a deal by Liberty earlier this year may
have benefited a corporate executive at the expense of outside
investors.

Full article (which you needn?t read because the point is in the above
blurb, i.e, to whit: "EGADS!!! Has this EVER happened before?!?!?!" ):

I would love to see the record of malfeasance, embezzlement, thievery,
fraud and every Thesaurian synonym, of capitalism since the beginning of
the Twentieth Century presented on a time line chart. It would be a
graphic indictment of an irredeemably rotten, corrupt, viciously violent
and irrational system. But, hey, that's life... right? YES: "RIGHT!"
The right-wing attitude of fatalism. Why *do* anything?

(Good point gained --> advance to purpose).
