Chron editorialists advise on good corporate citizens
In typically condescending fashion, the Chronicle editorial board yesterday lectured Wal-Mart on corporate responsibility:
These blunders, and the disgust they prompt in Wal-Mart's organized critics, should strengthen the company's resolve to be a better corporate citizen. The benefits both for Wal-Mart and the millions it affects could be enormous. Because of its magnitude, Wal-Mart can spur greener, more efficient practices in manufacturers, competing retailers and consumers. Even self-serving measures could widely improve quality of life:
Here's a question for the idealists: What exactly is the Hearst Corporation doing to be a "better corporate citizen?"
And locally, what is the Houston Chronicle doing to be a "better corporate citizen?" For starters, has there been any progress on improving the unsafe work environment?
Being a better corporate citizen should not simply involve the idealists' advice to others. It should start at 801 Texas Avenue!
