Hi Jon,

Could the magazine have changed the name of the company to protect the
shortsited ?

Could the magazine talk direct to the pgmrs and mid lvl managers in the dp
dept, promise not to name names, get all the details needed for the story,
then turn around, woodward and bernstein style and get the higher ups to
confirm or deny the report of their great accomplishment ?
