What if I told you that one of the biggest insider trading
scandals in Wall Street in the 1980s wasn’t orchestrated by a
hedge fund titan or a corrupt CEO, but by a charming underpaid
journalist for the Wall Street Journal who ruined his ruined his
promising career and sullied the reputation of the great Wasll
Street Journal- and all for just a few thousand dollars. This is
the story of R. Foster Winans who was a rising star
journalist in the heyday of the 1980’s, the era of “Greed is
good.” This is not just a story of financial crime; it’s a
cautionary tale where you might find yourself wondering: would I
have done the same? It’s a cracking story, enjoy.
