My trust in companies is shattered in a big way. I don’t believe they are sincere. Words are words. Back up and roll it back. I don’t believe a single word from that apology. It’s damage control. They have no spine and will say anything to achieve a desired outcome. They’re worse than politicians

I look at it like this. Companies, and media frankly, are under no obligation to tell the truth. That doesn't mean they are lying it just means if it's more profitable to lie they will. Basically, lying is on the table and they are only interested in getting your money.

Under no obligation??? There are laws!! If a company lie about a product outright that’s a lawsuit waiting to happen; and media? I can’t say shit about that since all they do is lie and divert your attention. We know media is owned by the 1% anyway so it’s not real media anyway
