  • Tyson Foods Tops FORTUNE World's Most Admired List for Food Production
    NEWS RELEASE Tyson Foods Tops FORTUNE World’s Most Admired List for Food Production 2/16/2017 Company jumps four spots to claim No. 1 ranking SPRINGDALE, Ark., Feb. 16, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tyson Foods, Inc. (NYSE:TSN) was recognized today by Fortune magazine as No. 1 on the World’s Most Admired Companies list in the Food Production segment, moving up four places from the company’s 2016 ranking. “We’re extremely proud of the work we’ve done, but I can tell you that we’re just getting started,” said Tom Hayes, president and chief executive officer of Tyson Foods. “We’ll use this momentum to drive positive change and continue to position the company for future growth.” Fortune collaborated with its partner Korn Ferry Hay Group on this survey of corporate reputations. The survey included about 1,500 candidates: the 1,000 largest U.S. companies ranked by revenue, along with non-U.S. companies in Fortune’s Global 500 database that have revenues of $10 billion or more. The list was then winnowed to the highest-revenue companies in each industry, a total of 680 in 28 countries. The top-rated companies were picked from that pool of 680; the executives who voted work at the companies in that group. To determine the best-regarded companies in 51 industries, Korn Ferry Hay Group asked executives, directors, and analysts to rate enterprises in their own industry on nine criteria, which include ability to attract and retain talented people, quality of products and services, quality of management, innovation, social responsibility, use of corporate assets and long-term investment value.

  • Support Sustainable Protein Production: Plant-Based Meat and Cultivated Meat
    SUPPORT SUSTAINABLE PROTEIN PRODUCTION: PLANT-BASED MEAT AND CULTIVATED MEAT “ What I was experiencing was more than a clever meat substitute. It was a taste of the future of food.” — Bill Gates, commenting on Beyond Meat’s plant-based chicken. Beyond Meat is a plant-protein company founded by Columbia Business School graduate Ethan Brown.

  • Tyson "Natural" FTC Complaint 07.2.2020
    July 2, 2020 Richard Quaresima Acting Associate Director, Division of Advertising Practices Bureau of Consumer Protection Federal Trade Commission 600 Pennsylvania Avenue N.W. Washington, D.C. 20580 VIA ELECTRONIC MAIL AND U.S. POSTAL SERVICE Re: Complaint requesting action to enjoin the dissemination of false or deceptive advertising by Tyson Foods, Inc. Dear Acting Associate Director Quaresima: The attached complaint is submitted by Richman Law Group on behalf of three non-profit organizations: Animal Equality, Organic Consumers Association (“OCA”), and Food & Water Watch (“FWW”). On behalf of these organizations, we write to request that the Federal Trade Commission investigate and take action to enjoin Tyson Foods, Inc. (“Tyson”) from making false and misleading claims about its chicken products and the conditions under which they are produced. As set forth in the complaint, Tyson is egregiously misleading consumers with marketing and advertising representations that falsely suggest its chicken products are produced in a natural, environmentally responsible, and humane way. Such representations, which are widely disseminated via Tyson’s website and on certain product labels, as well as via myriad other media, indicate to consumers that Tyson’s chickens were raised under natural and humane conditions on bucolic family farms by farmers utilizing environmentally sustainable practices and adhering to standards that exceed those of the average chicken producer. These representations are untrue. In reality, the practices used by Tyson suppliers, at the direction of Tyson, fall far below the level of animal care and environmental sustainability that a reasonable consumer would expect based on the company’s representations. Tyson utilizes the same unnatural, unsustainable, and inhumane National Chicken Council (“NCC”) standards that apply to the overwhelming majority of chickens raised in the United States, but it knowingly leads consumers to believe otherwise.

In fiscal 2014, we expect the company to generate revenue, EBITDA and earnings per share of $4.0 billion, $521 million and $1.75, respectively.

  • ABSTRACT POLITICAL (IN)DISCRETION: HILLARY CLINTON's RESPONSE to the LEWINSKY SCANDAL by Kelsey Snyder Through an Examination
    ABSTRACT POLITICAL (IN)DISCRETION: HILLARY CLINTON’S RESPONSE TO THE LEWINSKY SCANDAL by Kelsey Snyder Through an examination of gender, politics, and media during the time of the Lewinsky scandal, this project shows that conversations about the first lady shifted throughout 1998. Just after the allegations were made public, the press and American people fought against the forthright position that Hillary took; the expectations of traditional first ladies they had known before were not met. After facing backlash via the press, the first lady receded to more acceptably defined notions of her actions, based largely in late 20th century conservative definitions of appropriate gender roles. By the end of 1998, consideration of a run for the Senate and increased public support for her more traditional image provided a compromise for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s public image. Having finally met the expectations of the nation, the press spoke less of the first lady in comparison to family values and almost exclusively by means of her political abilities. POLITICAL (IN)DISCRETION: HILLARY CLINTON’S RESPONSE TO THE LEWINSKY SCANDAL A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Miami University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Department of History by Kelsey Snyder Miami University Oxford, Ohio 2015 Advisor __________________________________________ Kimberly Hamlin Reader ___________________________________________ Marguerite Shaffer Reader ___________________________________________ Monica Schneider TABLE OF CONTENTS

  • Hillary Rodham Clinton
    Hillary Rodham Clinton: A History of Scandal, Corruption and Cronyism Dear Concerned American, Liberty Guard is publishing this booklet on Hillary Rodham Clinton’s history of scandal, corruption and cronyism because you won’t hear much about it from the mainstream news media. This booklet provides a summary of Hillary Clinton’s most serious scandals (that we know about so far), including many probable crimes. Our goal is to have tens of millions of Americans reading this little book before the 2016 Election so that Americans can make an informed decision with their vote. But we need your immediate help to do this. It costs us about $1 to send a copy of this little book through the mail to one American citizen. So if you are able to send LIBERTY GUARD a donation of $25, for example, this will allow us to distribute a copy of this little book via postal mail to 25 citizens. If you are able to send a $15 donation, we can put this booklet in the mailboxes of 15 Americans. Will you help make this HILLARY CLINTON BOOK DISTRIBUTION CAMPAIGN the success I know it will be if every patriot who reads this letter contributes what they can? Most members and supporters of LIBERTY GUARD are sending donations in the $15 to $25 range — though some of our friends are blessed to be able to send larger donations of $50, $100, $500, $1,000 or even more, while our other friends are making an equal sacrifice by sending donations of $12, $10 or even $8.
