Big company management

You don't understand the nature of big organizations. The Internet is not going to change how big organizations such as Time-Warner operate. Top management will never show candor about anything, certainly not about major personnel decisions, certainly not about executive compensation or perks or internal dissension. Organizations follow tribal rules which are endemic in humankind and will not be eradicated no matter what information technologies exist.

It is unfortunate that Mr. Miller was canned without knowing it ahead of the news media, but he is an experienced executive who knows how the game is played.
