"I'm Eating My Cookie" boss fired

Alberta Health Services CEO Dr Stephen Duckett has been fired over his exceptionally poor dealing with reporters. Video, which went viral, showed Ducket shoving a cookie into the face of one reporter while repeating "I'm eating my cookie" in response to questions from the reporters.

This was an example on how disrespect for the media can become a career disaster and create challenges for the organization in maintaining the public's confidence.
