Fortune Magazine (7 September 1999)

The European telecommunications campaigns, and CUT in particular, are the subject of an article in Fortune Magazine (6 September 1999).

We don't normally say anything about individual media articles are they are now too numerous to keep track of. However, this one is different because:

  • Fortune is an enormously influential magazine, finding its way onto boardroom tables all over the world;

  • The magazine is an everyday word in many countries because it runs a well-known annual survey of US companies, the Fortune 500.

The printed article is much longer than the online one and includes an excellent photograph of the Committee (without Nick, who was indisposed). We asked the photographers to take an extra shot with our digital camera, and here it is:

Left to right: Charlie, Sunil, Iain, Rick, Richard, Alastair, George, Erol.

The irony of this photograph was that the photographers were Australian and understood exactly what we campaign for when we explained! Australia has untimed local calls , where the call charge is a single fee irrespective of the call length.
