Uber‘s VP says he would spend $1 million on an elaborate plan to take revenge on journalists who dissed the company..
The discomforting remarks emerged after Uber Senior Vice President Emil Michael threatened to hire “opposition researchers” to dig up dirt on journalists who reported unkindly on the company.
