This reminds me a bit of the McDonald's coffee case, something that seems absurd in a headline, but once you take time to understand it (like a jury or court would), makes a great deal of sense. The court of public opinion is generally a bad place to try things.

Not only did it make sense, McDonald's spent countless millions of dollars and years on influencing public opinion to make the general public believe it was about an elderly woman being clumsy. And it all turned into a joke until more people stepped forward.
