I used to think so many people in this business believe it pays to pull tricks that they wouldn't tolerate themselves, because they didn't credit that we would be around long enough to matter. But that excuse doesn't work too well after almost 10 years.

The only consolation is that although the majority are still chasing the quick buck regardless of cost, quite a few of the original champions of that attitude are fast becoming footnotes in the industry. Against that, the same (few) names come up every time there is a thread about quality, ethics, or whatever and eventually it may sink in that these sponsors go on performing consistently year after year.
