I'm continually amazed by how much outrage normal and perfectly reasonable business strategies generate in the general public.

None of this is unusual or in any way wrong. Red lobster (and olive garden) were mismanaged, and the investment funds were right about that.

Their attempts at salvaging the situation were perfectly reasonable, even if they were ultimately unsuccessful.

You're welcome to be outraged, but that doesn't mean there was anything untoward happening here.
