New AIG CEO Is, Naturally, A Lazy Douche
America's greatest company, AIG, has a new CEO! How should he introduce himself to the American public, which has like an 80 percent stake in his company, but doesn't really "own" it? As an industrious servant of the common man, of course! And that he does, in his big "debut" interview, with Reuters: "DUBROVNIK, Croatia (Reuters)—Wearing flip-flops, khaki shorts and a green polo shirt, the new chief executive of bailed-out insurer American International Group (AIG) says he's getting a lot of work done from his massive villa overlooking the Adriatic. 'People criticize me for being on vacation. I actually started work a week before I was actually supposed to,' Robert Benmosche told Reuters in an interview." Good lord. Things must be just stable enough now that these robberbarons don't have to give a shit anymore about presenting themselves through shiny, remorseful PR channels. [ Reuters ]
