Podcasting an expert opinion

As strong advocates of the value of investment in ethical businesses, we were delighted when Society Media client, Rod Schwartz, CEO of ClearlySo, went down a storm with The Guardian's podcast guide to the economy called The Business.

Rod explained the emergence of an ethical dimension to investment and why he believes the financial crisis is not just about the recession. Meanwhile, he was also asked for comment on issues ranging from Obama's first 100 days in office, the 50p tax rate and how charities are suffering in the downturn.
