tHAWT 23 – Bernie and Sol: Leaders or Bleeders?

In this episode, Mark, Trevor, and Dave discuss the subject of telecom leadership that is raised with Bernie going to jail and Sol under fire. Most people are aware of Bernie Ebbers and his exploits at Worldcom, now they can learn about Sol Trujillo, the former US West CEO who is now causing a stir down under. The triple play raises it head again and we discover that Mark is an unusual duck. Verizon announce financial data for their FiOS offering and cable companies continue to see success for their triple play. Competition on the business side is discussed as IBM enters the VoIP service business.

Hi guys, sounds like you sit around chewing the cud all day, not a bad day job.......just kidding. As for Bernie and Sol, well Bernie's history speaks for itself and Sol's history,  whilst it hasn't landed him in the same circumstance as Bernie,  is still just as "colourful".  I think his mark on Telstra will be in the same category as USWest and Gravitron when it is all said and done.  And the dogs over here are beginning to bark....

Cheers
