		<description>I do not trust 60 minutes.  I have seen shows of theirs that appear on the surface to be exposing wrongdoing, but end up being a sophisticated cover-up of the real crimes.  

For example, they had a show not long ago called &quot;The Price of Bananas&quot; 
(see 
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/05/08/60minutes/main4080920_page3.shtml?tag=contentMain;contentBody for transcript)
on how Chiquita paid death squads in Colombia for years, and they made it look like the company was paying for protection of its employees from attack, when in reality these death squads never attacked anyone but activists and labor leaders who were fighting for the rights and wages of those very employees - in other words, the death squads that Chiquita paid for attacked the enemies of Chiquita and the friends of Chiquita&#039;s workforce.  If they killed any employees, it was probably labor activists within their ranks. 

That should have been the story, but instead that angle was covered up.

So, what is their angle this time?  Why has this particular recycling company been targeted?  Why was there no follow-up (or even coverage) of the company&#039;s claims that it was itself defrauded by the company that bought its recyclables?  

Who knows?  Maybe this company really did commit crimes, but if so, was that the real reason for the 60 minutes attack piece, or was there some other, hidden, motive?

I don&#039;t trust 60 minutes, so I&#039;m just waiting for the real story to come out, somewhere very few people will see it, after 60 minutes&#039; angle has been heard by the millions.</description>

		<description>I have seen the 60 Minutes Report about one year ago. Is the reason it has been broadcast for the second time that the problen of &quot;misdirected shipments&quot; continued? My sense last year was that Brandon Richter, CEO, or the people handling out going shipments, had honestly been &quot;not directly involved in the illegal activities..&quot;. Also, it is unfortunate that this obvious infraction caused Mr. Richter to &quot;no longer hire prison labor&quot;. This is unfortunate, as it implys that these individuals were the cause of the &quot;brech&quot;. What brought him to make that conclusion or acuzation? It makes me now wonder about his integrity...as he needs to blame the most vulnerable, without proof!! Good luch Executive Recycling....Blame on!!

		<description>Yes, I know Brandon as well- we were neighbors. Brandon gave his children bungee cords to play with in which his child snapped one into my son&#039;s eye causing him to become legally blind in one eye. He was there when it happened and all we wanted was for him to put a claim into his homeowners insurance to help my 3 year old son out since it was permanent- he then quickly denied it and we were told by him and his wife Jill- *hit happens. Well Brandon- Carma baby- what comes around goes around - I guess *hit happens. After this ordeal his wife would point to my son and me and laugh as she would drive by- I don&#039;t think they have a care in the world about what happens to anyone.</description>

		<description>I think all of you who think Brandon is guilty are just jealous of his success - he&#039;s not a bad guy like one of the writers incidated.  He&#039;s very successful, loves his family, is passionate about what he does, is very good at what he does and unfortunately,  others (his competitors) want to ride off his coat tails and capitalize on this HUGE falicy.  Don&#039;t be so quick to point the blame - you sound a bit gullible believing what you watch from media reports.  The CEO should sue 60 Mins!  This show is looking for the easiest and juiciest stories possible and fill in the blanks where needed.  Nice job 60 mins on the junk - scandal does sell!  How boring the news would be if every day there was nothing to report.</description>
