Ex-HP CEO Carly Fiorina Hired By Fox News

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the definitely-a-downgrade dept.

neutrino38 writes "The International Herald Tribune reports that Fox News hired Carly Fiorina, ex-HP CEO. Such an interesting move will certainly bring support to those who viewed her as the over-hyped CEO who killed the original corporate engineering culture know as 'the HP way.' The article, off course, does not elaborate on this aspect of things. Slashdot has previously reported her demise from HP and some comments mentioned some HP employee dancing in the cubicles then."

    No kidding - this reads more like an editorial than a news item.

    Cue the hordes of political flame-fests in 3... 2... 1...

    Carly Fiorina is a cunt. It is well known that she pissed away HP. She has been trying to reinvent herself, taking credit for things wherever she can, but the truth is, she ran HP into the ground and destroyed it. HP barely supports their products, and that is the Carly Fiorina way. She's a cut throat cunt, that destroys companies.

    Foxnews? She'll fit right at home there.

    I really don't see how that is related.

    Well, you are pretty stupid.

    Whitewater was a criminal conspiracy that resulted in many people being convicted.

    Yeah? Why don't you look up the lengths of the prison terms served by Bill and Hillary over it, and then get back to us.

    An ad hominem argument, also known as argumentum ad hominem (Latin: "argument to the person", "argument against the man") consists of replying to an argument or factual claim by attacking or appealing to a characteristic or belief the person making the argument or claim, rather than by addressing the substance of the argument or producing evidence against the claim.

    Absolutely none of which applies to saying "their work was exceptionally poor" or pointing out their partisan ties or their their flawed methods.

    You are really not very good at making arguments are you?

    Nah, you're just not very good at life. If you don't know about the Republican hard-on for deregulation and "small government" there's not much we can do for you.

    Oh, sure, that's what were talking about here....

    It's what the press was talking about, yes. Your point?
