Boeing finally expresses "regrets". The regrets are not about the faulty system that killed 300 people, not about (reportedly) misleading the FAA, and not even about (reportedly) failing to disclose these messages to the FAA after the first crash which could have grounded the plane and saved the passengers and crew of the second accident plane. No, these "regrets" are about how these email messages were not released in a manner that allowed a "meaningful explanation" (ie, "spin".)
Maybe Boeing needs to swap the functions of their
PR and Engineering departments, by pure chance they might find somebody competent at their job that way.
