Gore - an otherwise great company and bona fide innovation powerhouse. This latest example shows that they start to act in a deceiving and desperate ways, employing lame marketing tricks over the methods of integrity. It's yet another example that makes me think that they start to ossify in their famed innovation, too. Besides, any journalist of decent talent can make more money by being a person of integrity rather than a mere PR prostitute. But only when he or she learns to ask more and better questions in more and better places. Refuse to be "reasonable" in questioning why the world is run the way it is run, and there will be no limit to your growth, both professionally and money-wise. After all, the same method is what brings great ideas to entrepreneurs seeking big bucks. Shame on W.L. Gore – an otherwise great company and bona fide innovation powerhouse.
