by O.L. Wade
International Journal of Management and Decision Making (IJMDM), Vol. 3, No. 2, 2002

Abstract: This paper describes faulty decisions: the first, a faulty diagnosis due to judgment impaired by the unsuitable circumstances in which the decision was made; the second, because inappropriate emotion impaired judgement; and the others, a consequence of inappropriate, premature and dramatic publicity by the media. Decision making in the glare of publicity is difficult.
