While I am =isappointed that you proactively communicated to all the participants =efore writing to Amelia, or me or Rachel, but what is done is done, and =t was probably inappropriate for me to ask you to write a follow-up =etter. It should be up to you to decide how you would proceed following =ur communication. (For what it is worth, I did have a brief =onversation with Ben near the end of the meeting expressing to him =fforts by a news organization to defame me, in the context of the =iscussion we all had the night before.) In any case, I am very =orry you felt blindsided, but given what I described in my letter below =t certainly didn't seem appropriate at that time to talk widely =bout something that had no credibility or seemed to have no likelihood =f appearing. As=far as the video of the public event is concerned, once again, we will =efinitely remove you from the film if you wish. But at this time =t seems to us to be disingenuous to retroactively remove all evidence =hat Stanley was one of the supporters of the event, which after all, =ent very well and was on a topic that all of us care about. =ertainl
