      They’ve been doing this for the last decade.

      Step 1: Do something outrageous and horrible that hurts many people.

      Step 2: Profit.

      Step 3: Publish some kind of very timid, mild, barely visible retraction or admission somewhere that nobody will ever see or care about, knowing full well we live in an attention-span economy and you can literally buy whatever levels of visibility or invisibility as you want from media outlets.
