The hypocrisy is strong in this one.
Yesterday, we reported that The Guardian (@guardian ) was banned by Exxon Mobile from attending their Annual General Meeting, on account of their unfavorable & one-sided reporting on global climate change.
Then, during that meeting, Exxon Mobile CEO Rex Tillerson then had the audacity to applaud his own openness in allowing freedom of expression from all sides, a seemingly open embracing of First Amendment rights...the very rights they seem content with stripping from journalists covering their AGM.
Said Tillerson during his speech (that journalists in attendance were forbidden to record): "The fact that people have different opinions on climate change; they have every right to their opinion, whether we agree with it or not - I will support their right to say so." #Quoteoftheweek
What do you think about Tillerson's remarks?
