Premier League, NFL and cricket wrestle with BLM response
LONDON: The English Premier League, the most popular domestic TV product in world sport, kicks off on Saturday having decided to replace the Black Lives Matter logo on players' shirts with a "No Room for Racism" patch. The move is indicative of the delicate position many sports teams and organisations find themselves in as they seek to show support for victims of injustice and send a strong anti-racism message while fearing a backlash from those opposed to aligning with movements that some say have wider political aims. On Thursday in the United States, the NFL restarted amid controversial scenes as some fans jeered during a moment of silence "dedicated to the ongoing fight for equality in our country" before the Kansas City Chiefs' game against the Houston Texans. While the Texans players stayed in the locker room for performances of "Lift Every Voice And Sing" and "The Star-Spangled Banner", the Chiefs, the defending Super Bowl champions, stayed on the field during the … [Read more...] about Premier League, NFL and cricket wrestle with BLM response
Citigroup’s Jane Fraser to become first woman to head a Wall St. bank
REUTERS: Citigroup Inc on Thursday named consumer banking head Jane Fraser to succeed Michael Corbat next year as the bank's chief executive officer, making her the first woman to lead a major Wall Street bank. Fraser, 53, has been a rising star in the financial industry, with a career that spans investment banking, wealth management, troubled mortgage workouts and strategy in Latin America – a key business for Citigroup.

"Great news for the company and for women everywhere!” tweeted Bank of America Corp operations and technology chief Cathy Bessant. “A big and fantastic moment.” "Jane will become our first female CEO, a point of pride for all of us and groundbreaking for our industry," Corbat said in an internal memo that was seen by Reuters.

Marco Muzzo offers tearful apology to grieving couple at sentencing hearing
The first day of his sentencing hearing focused on the children and grandfather he killed in a drunk driving car crash, but Wednesday was all about Marco Muzzo. The defence, pushing for a sentence of eight years in prison, presented the court with 92 letters of support — from family, friends, co-workers and Muzzo’s priest — which lawyer Brian Greenspan said spoke to the 29-year-old’s “fundamental decency.” Muzzo pleaded guilty earlier this month to charges of impaired driving causing death and impaired driving causing bodily harm for the Sept. 27 crash in Vaughan that killed 65-year-old Gary Neville and his three grandchildren: Daniel Neville-Lake, 9, Harrison, 5, and Milagros, 2. The children’s grandmother and great-grandmother were seriously injured. Muzzo had nearly three times the legal limit of alcohol in his blood at the time of the incident, court heard. When it came time Wednesday for Muzzo to face the children’s parents from the witness stand — just as their … [Read more...] about Marco Muzzo offers tearful apology to grieving couple at sentencing hearing
