  > There are many interesting points made and dealt with in this article but what's weird/wrong/suspicious about a CEO using IRC? It contradicts the image of a corporate heavyweight, who by definition would want to avoid making informal remarks that might be misinterpreted by stockholders or the public. In some contexts, informal remarks by a corporate insider could be taken to suggest an intent to manipulate the public's perception of the company and therefore its market valuation. > Did he say something specifically stupid there? Or is the very medium tainted? Answers: Not necessarily, and yes, definitely.
