As is common when dealing with
ongoing negotiations and employment of strategy....not every point is going to be laid out for the world to see, and that includes the membership. Want to know more and be part of the solution, get more involved than commenting online. They reality is they are paid to do what they are doing, and that doesn't involved running to the membership at every turn to either ask for suggestions or solutions, or get permission.
If anyone has followed the AMA blogs (yes, they exist), they will Chad answering many questions, and in a professional way. This is despite the battering that he and the AMA get even in those blogs. It's not shocking to hear they delete some of the more obnoxious comments, or not respond to every question. God knows if he spent his time doing that, he'd no doubt be criticized.
