Worst Manager Award for 2004

Business week has named David Smith, CEO of Sinclair Broadcasting Group, as the worst manager of 2004. Smith's aggressive conservative agenda has landed his stewardship as the worst of the worst. It does not help when large companies like Staples pulls its ads due to its partisan agenda (Link). Sinclair's stock price has plummeted 39% over the past year... Hope our Social Security "private funds" don't get invested in Sinclair. We would never be able to retire.
