I think the Snapple analogy is a little different.

Snapple sold out at a top with Quaker Oats not knowing how to sell the brand. With MAT and TLC, the signs are pointing to some number massaging. I think it goes without saying, MAT didn't do their DD with TLC. An article posted a few days ago said it all, Jill has no confidence from the MM's on the street.

Fun loving management + creative accounting = $10.4 million severance. Oy.

Jill must go.
