| | This is an interesting example of the concept of corporate culture which, so far as I know, no Objectivist has ever discussed. For those who follow the news closely, the above report is not a surprise. Sony is a notoriously morally low company. Their former CEO published the infamous best-seller The Japan That Can Say 'No' back in the 1980s. The important fact is that businesses have disernable characters just as individuals do. Some are high and some are low. But arch-capitalist Objectivists don't seem to know or care about Newsweek vs. Time, Playboy vs. Penthouse, Earthlink vs. America On Line, Coke vs. Pepsi, McDonald's vs. Burger King, etc. This is a serious lacuna in Objectivist thought.
