Yet Ackman argues that index funds are destroying his and hedge fund's abilities to better govern a company. I guess the fraud was the fault of those darn index funds!

CNN just released video footage they have of the actual crash. The plane (from what I see) after crashing does a near 360-degree turn with the right wing high up – in fact you can …
