All of you loyal TrueTalk Blog readers out there know that I have a great deal of admiration for Bob Lutz, Vice-Chairman of GM. Lutz started blogging several years ago and for about a year and a half after he did, I noted each of his posts with some commentary of my own.
Lately, Lutz has taken to YouTube, a change I noted in a brief talk I gave at TED last year. In this video, Lutz talks about why he started blogging and gives his assessment of the FastLane Blog's impact. The video is definitely worth ten minutes of your time, if for no other reason than to watch a master communicator, who also happens to be a senior executive, in action.
Bob Lutz, as and advertiser on the Golf Channel and the sponsor of the Buick Tournament, What is you thoughts on "young players taking Tiger in an ally and hanging him".
Is this someting that was said to inspire the resurgence of the greatest hangmen of all times, the klan, or just hate itself rearing its ugly head.
To be crystal clear lynching in the United States Of America is a hate crime.
I am infuriated such tolerance has been demonstrated in 2008, 40 years after the death of one of the world greatest Civil Rights leaders, Dr.Martin Luther King Jr., who life, by the way, is being celebrated this month.
We are now on the brink of making major changes for the social and economic growth of the country, and for such a horiffic statement to be made insulting 50 million blacks in this country,and billions more around the world, who deeply feel this insult on humanity, this is intollerable.
Then, to throw more gasoline on the fire, the Golf Channel says we are going to suspend Kelly for two weeks, balderdash.
She apologized for getting caught saying what she has been feeling for twelve years.
IF THAT WAS NOT ENOUGH, KELLY WOULD BE AN ANALYST ON YOUR TOURNAMENT AS SOON AS SHE RETURNS FROM SUSPENSION (VACATION), IF SHE DOES WE ARE NOT WATCHING.
Isn't that like saying, "judge, I did point the gun and pull the trigger the person is dead, but I really did not know the gun was loaded".
Responsibility and consequences.
We never want to see her face or hear her voice again. She has committed professional suppuku, falling on her own sword. The tongue being mightier than..
Bob,the buck starts and stops with you. Do we keep supporting you or do we find another car company?
Positive steps must be taken by responsible people.
There is no room in this country for hatred and racism.
I know you do not support this behavior, let you voice be heard.
This is what the buzz is all about in OUR world.
Thank You!
