This whole drama thing kinda made me think of something. When companies do things that get a lot of backlash, they just hire people to deal with it. They have first line support, marketing, spokespeople... When it gets "We leaked a bunch of oil in the gulf" bad, the ceo gives a show, but even that is trained and scripted.

But when you're working in a community, you don't have that luxury. You're one person, just like the rest. If you do things that upset people, you'll hear about it and there's no first line or marketing or spokesperson to take the hit for you.
