Bad publicity could potentially be so relevant for decision makers as good publicity. If they are afraid of receiving bad publicity perhaps they will think twice before they do some damage. It is also important, as Eric said before, to dig into the bad decisions and actually explain why we think they were wrong. And this can be explored from multiple perspectives.
