If someone, in this case the Guardian, or any other entity is prevented to address an issue, then individuals will still be able to spread over the discussion publicly. Organisations should rather enbrace such conversations and contain their communication crisis by responding rather than seeking to suffocate the issue. Yet most do fear public conversations and unavoidably lose the battle. Individual and smaller entities have now the power to respond and reach out as widely and faster than larger organisations.
