RESPONSIBLE CORPORATIONS? APPLE, NEWS CORP & GOOGLE
This film looks at three famous companies in the world of media and technology and explores the ethics of their approach to business.
APPLE has amazing products, but they're made by people in China who work long hours for small wages. Some workers have even killed themselves: the "Foxconn Suicides". Apple now monitors its suppliers for compliance with its standards ¨C but is this enough?
NEWS CORP is a global media empire with famous brands like the Sun and Fox News. Founder Rupert Murdoch was once praised for taking on the print unions and he wielded huge power over society and politicians. But his papers have been criticised for promoting racism and homophobia. Now the hacking scandal has shaken his empire to the core. Is there an alternative to big companies controlling our media?
GOOGLE: Launched in a dorm room by two students, Google is now a massive global success story. But has it been TOO successful? Does it have too much of our personal information? And how do we know what they're going to do with it? Britain's Information Commission Officer explains his concerns.
