From AutoWeek (http://www.autoweek.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060814/FREE/60814002/1024/LATESTNEWS):
Dealers Randy Hiley and Robert DeVaux thought the video Webcast they filmed July 13 was for U.S. Mazda dealers' eyes and ears only.
Wrong. The private telecast, in which they discussed customer complaints about the RX-8 sports car, was pirated and broadcast on the Internet.
This was Mazda's diabolical scheme:
In the Webcast, Hiley and DeVaux told dealers: "Mazda is well-aware of the negative impact on the scores caused by the RX-8 surveys. They agreed with us that the situation had to be changed. And so, effective July 1st, RX-8 will be continued to be included in the survey, but the scores will no longer be included in the results."
Sounds like the government - redefine the results until they satisfy your point of view! :roll:
