Chamber CEO Takes Another Dig at Apple
The head of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce isn’t letting the group’s feud with Apple rest.
After blasting Apple (AAPL) earlier this week for quitting the Chamber, Thomas Donohue took aim at the company again today at an hourlong news conference at the Chamber’s headquarters. Apple, he said, has been “misstating” the chamber’s position on U.S. climate policy, and suggested some companies are quitting his group as part of an orchestrated campaign.
But Donohue also expressed regret that one of his aides called for a “Scopes monkey trial” on the evidence that human activity is raising surface temperatures, saying he was “madder than hell” when that was reported over the summer.
