As part of their defense, some Enron defendants commissioned a survey to ascertain exactly what the attitudes were in Houston about Enron. These are just some of the thousands of responses.
Clearly the myth creation by the press worked. People do not know anything really but they have a very bad perception of the company and the management.
The ETF/DOJ won this media battle hands down. The Chronicle never did anything to show there was more than the Government version of the story. They repeated the slur over and over until the public believed it was true. This blog and few other sites are the only ones that show the lies that were told and keep being repeated by the media and the Government.
Oh I agree about that. NOBODY even bothered to pretend there might be another side to the Enron story. Everyone “knew” that Enron was corrupt because the Chron and the local news shows, the DOJ, and Congress kept saying it was true, before anyone even had all the facts.
Cara Ellison discusses Enron on this blog. Her other blog, discussing personal stuff, book stuff, and whatever, can be found at ellisonblog.wordpress.com.

It’s a disgrace.
