Default OT-Ebbers blames union for demise of MCI

New York (AP)- In a post trial press conference Bernard Ebbers, the former
CEO of MCI convicted on all nine counts of a federal incictment alleging he
masterminded the 11 billion dollar acounting fraud that resulted in the
bankruptcy of MCI, blamed his conviction of "those damn greedy unions and
the liberal media". Freed on bail while awaiting sentencing, Ebbers' defense
team has indicated that he will be calling Kenneth Lay, Dennis Kozlowski,
Michael Milken, Dick Cheney and possibly Tom DeLay as character witnesses
during the upcoming penalty phase.

He might want to consider not calling Cheney. That would damage his
prospects.
