Randy Haugen Response to Losing $19 Million to Procter and Gamble

It's good to see you again. You can get the MLM Blog delivered to your email by subscribing here.
Here (via Google cache) is the response (now gone) from the Randy Haugen News blog:
Randy Haugen is a person of proven character and integrity. When a P&G rumor was accidentally decimated by Mr. Haugen, he made every effort to retract it. We believe that it is a continuing outrage that Mr. Haugen and the other Quixtar IBOs in the case have been targeted by one of the world's largest corporations.
A Salt Lake City court returned a verdict against Randy Haugen and several others in the long-running P&G case. The jury awarded P&G damages of $19.25 million. That’s a far cry from the $5 billion P&G had demanded, and frankly leaves them with very little to show for a wasteful and spiteful decade of mean-spirited litigation.
But that doesn’t make the verdict any more acceptable for the Quixtar IBO defendants in this case. We’d like to think that, had the jury been allowed to see some of the evidence that was withheld from them by the court, they would have voted differently. Perhaps, if there is an appeal, they will.
But at the same time, we also remain respectful of the decision, the jury and the judicial system, even when we are extremely disappointed in the fairness of a particular outcome.

it really wasn’t ever about an award so much as it was about winning a PR/publicity campaign, and damaging a once fast-growing potential market threat.
the negative publicity was very damaging to the fastest growing organization in the amway business at the time.
one has to wonder if possibly P&G might have created the rumour as a rouse and excuse to bring down the business.
i’d like to find out where the TRUE origins of this rumor were created.
