“No one likes bad news. No one praises the messenger of impending doom. When money, jobs or simply pride are at stake, truth-tellers (like coal mine canaries) often endure the wrath of owners or stakeholders focused on a bottom line. Climate. Environment. Health. War. The bearers of an uncomfortable truth often travel a rough road.”
