Don't ask me, I don't have a Ph.D. in "media communication".
...say something suitably non-litigious to soothe troubled brows and prevent passengers trying another airline.
Like "...at no point was the safety and well-being of our passengers compromised" after what those passengers just had been through? Oh come, even I could have done better, I think, given five minutes.
I'm certainly not questioning that what he said was nugatory and largely meaningless, but it's his job to protect the business, not scare the passengers.
Well, as an SLF just scared witless, I would be scared even more by such a meaningless statement.
"You mean to say you got no idea where the smoke came from? You mean those slides are 'safe', when I just twisted my ankle?"
I still think that spokesman should have been sent head down on that slide.
It might have woken him up to reality.
