Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "David Edmondson" in English language version.
In 2006, RadioShack Corp. ousted Chief Executive Officer David Edmondson after he admitted he lied about his education. He claimed to have earned degrees in theology and psychology from Pacific Coast College in California, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
Mr. Edmondson, in an interview with The Star-Telegram on Feb. 10, had conceded he did not have two degrees, and that the degree he said he did have was not a bachelor's degree, as he had claimed in the résumé he gave RadioShack when he was hired in 1994. But he insisted he had one degree, a Th.G., a theology degree that the college, now known as the Heartland Baptist Bible College, awards after three years of study. The newspaper said the college said its records showed he had attended for two semesters, but did not graduate.
Edmondson has maintained that he received a theology degree from an unaccredited California institution called Pacific Coast Baptist Bible College, which later relocated to Oklahoma and renamed itself Heartland Baptist Bible College.
