Carnival Cruise Lines shareholder James Morgan is seeking to get Carnival to end it’s relationships with media companies that “seek to undermine the travel industry by disseminating Anti-American propaganda” according to a story in today’s Miami Herald. Apparently Mr. Morgan believes that the coverage on several media outlets “diminishes the US in the eyes of the world and enflames terrorists.”
Mr. Morgan, who owns 100 shares of Carnival stock, wants the Board of Directors to require Carnival to end the line’s contracts with CNN, BBC, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, claiming that their “propoganda” will “lead to future terrorist attacks that will adversely affect the travel market.”
Carnival has filed a request with the Securities and Exchange Commission to drop Mr. Morgan’s request. The line believes that decisions regarding what media outlets are available onboard it’s ships really should be left to it’s managers… Something tells me that they’re probably right…
