Nope, sorry if it read like that but, no... I said "it is VERY presumptious to figure that Directnic was the only one in the wrong" - people are assuming that DN is wrong and Slick is perfect snow fucking white... and that is a very bad presumption.
Very very little was made by the howlers, screamers, and boycotters about what Slick may or may not have done to resolve this situation or to better handle it. These people all came to these threads with an agenda... even going so far as to get Mr Douglas to make an off the cuff comment without having full information, and then repeating his comments over and over again as gospel.
There was that presumption that Directnic was the only one in the wrong from the word go. I have a feeling at the end of the day, Directnic will show to be either completely correct or doing what was right for their business under the circumstances, and very few of the people raising a ruckus around here will take a minute to say "well, I guess we were wrong".
Retractions and corrections are always printed in a little box on page 67, long after the front page headlines have done the damage.
