Finally returning to this dormant thread<\/a>, Scott Chamberlain is starting to goggle at the depths to which the management of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra<\/strong><\/em> (FWSO<\/strong><\/em>) has sunk<\/a>, particularly in regards to some promotional pictures released by management. I’ll leave most of the pics on Scott’s Mask of the Flower Prince<\/strong><\/em>:<\/a><\/p>\n

But wait.\u00a0 Others on social media are calling out that something isn\u2019t right with that picture.<\/p>\n

In fact, this is what that original picture looks like, uncropped:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In fact, its an edited version of a photo that appeared last year. The key difference?\u00a0 A number of audience members in this shot are wearing green. As in, they are wearing green shirts in support of the musicians.\u00a0 But the photo that the FWSO has used in its Facebook ad has been cropped to remove many of them\u2026 and some audience members have their green shirts Photoshopped\u2026 into different colors<\/em>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It appears to be a win at any moral<\/strong> cost<\/em> situation for FWSO<\/strong><\/em> management \/ board, doesn’t it? They’ve taken a position – that musicians simply make too darn much money – and turned it into an anchor around their own necks. Of course, I don’t know how FWSO<\/strong><\/em> musician pay compares to other top flight orchestras across the nation, adjusted, of course, for geographical location. But when you move into the terrain of falsification, of fraud, you really leave that important issue behind. Now the paramount issue becomes the moral and ethical lapse of management, and the important follow-on question:<\/p>\n

Can you ever trust these chappies again?<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I don’t know what Scott thinks, but I think it’s time for the replacement of FWSO management \/ board. Even if they blame this on an over-zealous rogue employee, they still have to go – because the cumulative implied incompetence, as the leaders of the organization, makes them unworthy of their positions.<\/p>\n

And note how this is an illustration of the positive<\/em> power of the Internet. Too often – such as yesterday’s Google<\/strong><\/em> scam<\/a> – we hear how the Internet is used to take advantage of people. Here we see how the cumulative power of massed eyes picked up on an immoral tactic. And apparently is jamming it right down their throat.<\/p>\n

I hope next Scott writes on this issue, it’s to report a whole lot of resignations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
