Aye, but they're behind a password, so people have to sign up to see them (although..actually, isn't this whole forum behind a password? Doh.) And then they get the chance to read through a bunch of posts - a number of which, at the moment, are people shouting at each other :-/
Journalists can be quite rushed for time, so if we could get just the statements and information in one place for them to browse through, that could be helpful. Plus, they'd know where to come for official comments from 'Save' when NC Soft claims that they tried putting out the flaming puppy and everything.
