The hyperbole of this line demeans the whole article, 'one of this century’s biggest corporate disasters '
14 years into the 21st Century? Come on.
- LukeShu 13y agoI interpreted it as "one of the biggest corporate disasters of the last 14 years," and would give the author the benefit of the doubt that that is what she meant.
- mikepurvis 13y agoSeriously. I think the global oil companies will have something to show us about corporate disaster before the century is up. In any case, 86 years is a lot of years remaining for someone to do a worse job than BlackBerry.
- tvanzyl 13y agoOff the top of my head Enron in 2001, WorldCom in 2002, Lehman Brothers and AIG in 2008, and GM and Chrysler in 2009 all seem to be better fit than Blackberry for the 'century's biggest corporate disasters'.
