The 19 November 2007, Channel 4 Dispatches programme hosted by Mark Thomas contains inaccurate and out-of-date allegations about The Coca-Cola Company and its work. This Web site was created to be one convenient location to check the facts and learn the truth about these issues.
Dispatches Gets It Wrong
We’re appalled that this collection of inaccurate, biased and out-of-date allegations would be broadcast on a reputable channel. The producers of this programme have done a great disservice to the thousands of honest, decent men and women of the Coca-Cola system who work to serve and sustain their communities every day, all around the world. Anyone who really knows our Company or takes the time to do their homework knows that we are committed to having a positive impact on communities and the planet.
