To what extent do Massey shareholders want to hold company leaders accountable for the terrible safety record in Massey mines? Turns out, not at all.
“„Baxter Phillips, Richard Gabrys and Dan Moore, who each served on Massey’s safety committee, will keep their seats on the Richmond, Virginia-based company’s board, six weeks after the explosion at the Upper Big Branch mine where 29 people were killed.
