Where are the Good Corporate Citizens?

A new television special has just begun airing on PBS affiliates around the country. Called “In Search of the Good Corporate Citizen,” it combines a panel discussion about top executives as well as reported pieces on individuals who found themselves caught up in scandals.

There short clips from the series appear below: a brief into to the series, a short segment with one of the co-founders of HealthSouth, and a bit of an interview with an executive from HBOS who shot up flairs about the impending mortgage scandal to a deaf audience.

The show has already run a few stations with expectations it will run on more over the next few years.

Among upcoming stations scheduling the show in the near future are: NHPTV (New Hampshire) on Thursday, 12/3 at 9:00 p.m,  WTVI/Charlotte (North Carolina) on Sunday, 11/15 at 5:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.; and WVPBS.2 (West Virginia) on Monday, 11/16 at 8:00 p.m.

To find out where it might run near you, go to the production company’s website.

    Thanks for your important work. I just started a blog about Job Corps Fraud and in 15 days the site has already had over 2,600 hits from all over the US.

    I know you are very busy but please visit the site and the Facebook page to hear about another scandal that has been “slumbering” for awhile. Ex-employees are posting to the site and I’m publishing audit reports from the Inspector General’s Office.
