Bad Loan Ratios, Chinese Hollywood, Ethics & Integrity, Social Media Measurement, ISIS – today’s reading recos.

Bloomberg has a good infograph (a rather scary one) on bank bad loan ratios. We aren’t as bad as Italy, but it is still scary.

Business World has a good interview with Robert Kaplan, on the role of ethics and integrity in today’s world.

Campaign talks about why marketeers are disillusioned with social-media marketing, and has solutions on what marketeers can do to change their approach to Social Media. Hint : They are measuring the wrong thing.
