It would seem so, but there are countless examples of how public
exposure was the key - whistleblowers who were fired, then rehired
after a public expose, consumers ripped off by a business, but after
the local radio/TV station airs the case, the company fixes it (after
months of saying "go away"), tire recalls after public articles... the
list goes on and on. 

I believe public exposure is important in getting action. Why else
would they try to suppress it so much? :-)

It does a lot mare than that. For one, it alerted me to potentially
serious problems I might not have known about without this forum. My
thanks go to everyone who brought this to light.
