Tom Gresham On The NRA And LaPierre
Tom Gresham, host of Gun Talk Radio, has called for Wayne LaPierre to step down. He addressed the troubles with the NRA this past Sunday on his radio show. To anyone who doubts his credentials in service to the Second Amendment, I'd remind them he is on the Board of Directors for the Second Amendment Foundation and on the Board of Governors of the National Shooting Sports Foundation plus his long running radio show.
His comments start at the 2:08 mark and end at 11:54. It is worth spending the 10 minutes to listen to Tom's entire commentary.
It's a rule in business that the appearance of impropriety has the same impact as impropriety. In any other company, the CEO is pretty much gone if something like this happens.
I really don't know if the allegations are true but (1) they seem like it and (2) it doesn't matter (see first sentence). In any normal company Wayne would be out.
When Tom Gresham speaks, people (should) listen!
ReplyDeleteGood talk, I wish we knew more.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree more with him!
ReplyDeleteAt this point I don't even care how it started. The only reasonable outcome of this sort of debacle is the CEO needs to go away.

When I worked for the USDA, we were told to always avoid the appearance of impropriety.
