True, true, and it applies to the company as well. My understanding is that company officials knew they had the message screwed up within an hour of having spread the word that the miners were alive. Before 1 a.m. they knew that they didn't really know what had happened. Had they said that right then, instead of a few hours later, the papers would have had a shot at getting it right. And, of course, they wouldn't have been such gutless, evil pricks to the families.
