Companies often become victims of their own mythologies.

But I know newspapers. They have the first amendment and they can tell any lie knowing it's a lie and they're protected if the person's famous or it's a company.

I don't think we should view corporations as people for the purposes of speech.

Corporations are a fictional entity that are designed to make money, and they're neither people nor patriots.

Virtually every magazine, newspaper, TV station and cable channel is owned by a big corporation, and they've squashed stories that they don't want the public to know about.

The corporation is one of the great unheralded human inventions of destruction. It is a way to absolve from any personal liability a bunch of people. They form together in a massive ID and they do whatever they want.

So often corporate America, business America, are the worst communicators, because all they understand are facts, and they cannot tell a story. They know how to explain their quarterly results, but they don't know how to explain what they mean.

All the biggest companies are based on a founder who had a need, hacked it together, and said, 'Hey, other people might want this.'
