By Kerri Fivecoat-Campbell, Next Avenue A friend with whom I had previously worked with instant-messaged me on Facebook a couple of years ago and asked, “Hey, have you applied for your pension?” We had worked together 35 years ago in the credit department of a major bank. I replied, “Pension? We get a pension?” She told me another friend with whom we worked had told her about it.

The issue with both calls is that they’re aimed at short-term traders and hedge funds, not longer-term investors. Neither report calls into question the underlying fundamentals of these businesses or…

CBS executives told staffers during a daily editorial meeting that the contentious “CBS Mornings” interview last week with Coates, led by co-anchor Tony Dokoupil, had been addressed with Dokoupil. The assessment pacified some employees who had objected to Dokoupil’s tone during the segment with Coates. But it offended other employees who thought Dokoupil’s interview was appropriately tough. “We have an obligation as journalists to challenge controversial guests, and that’s what Tony did,”…
