Sounds like a job for Morley Safer--if he weren't one of the rent-a-journalists involved. According to the New York Times, Safer taped presentations that were repeated in hundreds of such videos made by WJMK Inc., a Boca Raton, Fla., company, appearing on a news-show-like set and introducing two-to five-minute segments titled American Medical Review.

WJMK said the AMR segments were not ads, but the health and drug companies provided sources for the reports and, according...
...more women and minorities in executive suites, which put off some of the firm's old-liners. Some sued, claiming reverse discrimination, while others worked quietly to speed the CEO's ouster.

Under new CEO Paul Tellier, a proven cost cutter, Bombardier Inc., the parent company of Bombardier Aerospace, is paring down its operations to become nimbler and more focused on its core businesses, making trains and planes.

...market right now is very sensitive to change." Investors agree. Embraer stock has fallen from the high $30s before the 9/11 attacks to about $15, despite a boost from the U.S. Airways deal. Shares in Bombardier are stuck around $3, down from about $18. The good news for Bombardier Inc. is that it has a respected new chief executive in Tellier, 63, who arrived in January. A roll-up-your-sleeves manager, Tellier took over the moribund, government-owned Canadian National Railway Co. in 1992 and turned it into a lean and efficient publicly traded market leader. He did that...
