News, Etc.

Read between the lines of this article, and it sounds like bad news for Harry & David, especially when most of the execs don't even live in the Rogue Valley.

Employees sing a different tune than the absentee execs who probably can't find Medford, Oregon, on a map.

What a pair of winners:

The new CEO, Steve Heyer, lost his most recent high-profile job as chief executive at Starwood Hotels after facing allegations that he had sent inappropriate sexual e-mails to underlings.

Ross Klein, whom Heyer brought in to run Harry & David's new branding effort, left a job at Hilton Hotels in 2008 after he was accused of corporate espionage, an allegation that is a subject of a federal criminal investigation. Klein is working out of an office near his home in Beverly Hills.

Heyer and Klein have denied any wrongdoing.

Jones of Wasserstein praised both men.

Doug and Cindy Hampton may lose their home, but I seriously doubt they will be homeless.

Good riddance to this piece of rubbish.

Speaking of rubbish, I am glad I didn't bother to look at Oprah Winfrey's trashing of public school teachers. As the writer of the linked post notes, Oprah is hardly in the position to cast stones at American public schools.
