Re: Chinese Whispers?

I think you must be hard of comprehending as clearly I meant "Chinese Whispers" in the sense used by the "previous poster". Here's the content of the post in question:

---
"I believe they need to address it publicly, at the least, to maintain their credibility"

And foster yet more unsubstantiated rumours? All we have at the moment are chinese whispers, it does not amount to a hill of beans, until someone actually publishes the details of the incident in print for public consumption, their current course of action is the course of least damage.

Get it now, i.e. the part about "unsubstantiated rumours"?

Things such as augmenting the tale, exaggerating details, etc. are all aspect of the operation of Chinese Whispers (or Operator, or any of a number of other common names for it), and from that perspective Dudley certainly took liberties. However not need to recount, I've already had my say on the topic.
