Actually, I agree that great problems--lack of responsibility and effective oversight--can be attributed to Sanchez's managers, but that's them, not him. I'm certainly not defending Sanchez; I just believe there's no need to sensationalize his sins and aberrations in order to momentarily entertain. I don't think our society wants information; they only want bytes of scandal and outrage that they can cluck about amongst themselves like a flock of biddy hens. If you don't believe we're a nation of boobs, just turn on the TV for about five minutes.
Sanchez's failure to do his job is reason aplenty to demonize him. Hopefully, his overseers will feel their feet to the fire soon enough, although I fear corporate flimflam will mean the big boys get off the hook.
In the meantime, Dan, relax and have another Twinkie.
