Conference Threatens to Fine Bloggers for Not Writing Posts

If you register for next month's Conscious Capitalism conference in San Francisco as a blogger, be prepared to dole out a few posts on the topic, or you'll have to pay a fine.

That's the message Conscious Capitalism sent to bloggers who registered for press access to its two-day event. Concious Capitalism is a non-profit that operates a range of programs and events for business leaders. John Mackey, co-founder and co-CEO of Whole Foods, and Kip Tindell, co-founder and CEO of The Container Store, are among its better-known directors — indeed, Mackey is one of the more outspoken supporters of the organization.
