Cramer adds those business executives to the Wall of Shame who he thinks are incompetent and have led to value destruction for the shareholders.

What else did Cramer say on AT&T?

AT&T acquired Time Warner for $85 billion in 2018 touting the synergies of the combined entity. Now they recently announced the merger between WarnerMedia and Discovery. On the deal, Cramer said:

“It’s not a transformational deal… it’s the final act of one of the dumbest mergers in recent history. The truth is, AT&T made a boneheaded decision and now they’re paying for it, but in corporate America, no one really pays for it, no one’s even allowed to say it, no one’s allowed to admit it.”

He further added:

“Today’s move is a major repudiation of that nonsense. All this talk of synergies and monetizing AT&T’s close relationship with its customers was totally chimerical. To me, this was a tremendous destruction of value.”

Who else is on the list?

In the past, Cramer added Equifax Inc. (NYSE: EFX) CEO Richard Smith to the list for his handling of the cyber breach at the firm. At the time, the hack was the fifth-largest in history while putting data of 143 million U.S. consumers at risk.

Cramer has added General Electric Company’s (NYSE: GE) board of directors to the list for signing off on all the poor and value-destroying decisions that the company had been making for some time.
