See, TMP, I disagree that "In 1997, at the invitation of CEO Gary Winnick, Mr. McAuliffe made an investment of $100,000 in Global Crossing shortly before it went public. Two years later he sold it for $18 million. Shortly thereafter, Global Crossing made a public announcement of decline in profits and the share price plummeted. It declared bankruptcy last January..." is slanting the situation.
BTW...the situation is even worse than described because that $100,000 McAuliffe invested was given to McAuliffe by Winnick/Global Crossing as a "speaking fee." A $100,000 speaking fee fer Terry McAuliffe back in 1997?!! How many folks had even heard of McAuliffe back in 1997, let alone be willing to pay him $100,000 to talk to their employees?!
