Robert talks with Kurt Eichenwald -- a business reporter with the New York Times -- about tapes which have surfaced that reveal Texaco executives discussed an impeding Federal discrimination suit. In his story in this morning's paper, Eichenwald details what the executives said regarding purging and shredding documents. In addition, he writes, the executives berated the company's minority employees with racial epithets. The tapes were recorded in August 1994, and some of the remarks were published in today's New York Times.
