[QUOTE="Mercule, post: 3581663, member: 5100"] I disagree. WotC has received so much flack on the DI for giving half-answers and being evasive that I don't think they should go that way. Specifically, with the DI, every time WotC gives a partial answer or says, "wait and see", people accuse them of not actually having any sort of plan. By saying, "NDA" or "FTC rules", they show they have a plan, they just have reason to not share it. Personally, I appreciate the "FTC rules" approach a [u]lot[/u] more. I find it shows respect for me and the fact that I can understand the way business works. It's also less manipulative in the sense that they are not trying to dodge questions or hide (even minor) information. That said, he probably have handled himself somewhat better, but it wasn't horrible by any means -- especially if he is either new to the role or is otherwise unacustomed to giving interviews.
