AOL's CEO is a loathsome human being

Have you heard this conference call?

The firing took place during a conference call with more than 1,000 employees of Patch, the local news service AOL runs for hundreds of towns. Mr. Armstrong had convened the meeting to impress upon the staff the direness of Patch’s circumstances and prepare them for coming layoffs and management changes. “If you think what is going on right now is a joke, and you want to joke around about it, you should pick your stuff up and leave Patch today,” Mr. Armstrong told the employees.



But right after that statement he can be heard interrupting himself to tell Mr. Lenz, Patch’s creative director, who was photographing the meeting, to stop. Then he fired him.



“Abel, put that camera down right now! Abel, you’re fired. Out!” Five seconds later, to stunned silence on the call, he proceeded with his message.



I hope he gets cancer or suffers some sort of tragedy soon.
