Get Ready For Enron: The Movie. What better way to spread ignorance than to take a highly sensitive topic, add fluff to make it entertaining, and get the facts wrong for the sake of creating a good story? I can see it now… Ken Lay kidnapped by al-Qaeda terrorists…
To be fair, any ignorance isn’t the fault of the industry. The television stations and production companies are businesses and they’ll do whatever they have to do to make a profit. (…. Or to tell people they’re making a profit.)
