RadioShack Corp. Chief Executive Officer David Edmondson said he lied about the academic degrees on his resume and the third-largest U.S. electronics chain is investigating the matter.

``The contents of my resume and the company's Web site were clearly incorrect,'' Edmondson said in a statement yesterday. ``It is my belief that I received a ThG diploma, not a BS degree as I asserted. I clearly misstated my academic record and the responsibility for these misstatements is mine alone. I understand that I cannot now document the ThG diploma.''
