The Robber Bank: Can America Ever Rid Itself of Wells Fargo?
The article's lead is a lie. Slate reports that "$3 billion represents only a small part of the bank’s takings from just this one scam", but that's simply not true - as they quoted (!!), Wells Fargo was only accused of taking millions. (The Warren quote they pointed to seems to also be a lie, but I guess it's plausible that she has some principled reason for thinking that $12 billion of profits are "from" the fake account scam even though they're not directly taken from customers.)<p>This doesn't fill me with trust that the article's other examples of misconduct are reported honestly.
