I think this is an excellent place to target.
According to the Viacom Board of Director guidelines the Board has a fiduciary responsibility to the stockholders not Dan Rather.
http://www.viacom.com/pdf/CorpGovGuidelines.pdf
"The responsibility of the directors is to act in good faith and with due care so as to exercise their business judgment on an informed basis in what they reasonably and honestly believe to be in the best interests of Viacom and its stockholders."

What you just posted, about their duty and obligation to shareholders, is part of a legal ethical requirement they have as a result of Enron.
It is called the Sarbanes-Oxley Amendment.

since Viacom is probably in most of our 401ks, Fidelity, Vanguard, etc., we are all shareholders, intentionally or not.
