Why is AMA so frightened of transparency?

The list changes every day so anything posted today would be out of date before I quit working for the day.
Is anyone surprised at the rationalization / excuse for lack of transparency from AMA EC member? Just include a line at the top that says "Information accurate as of close of business on ____" and have that be the day prior.
Problem solved - if they want to solve it. Reality is, they don't want to solve it, because that means transparency and perhaps membership finding out they're not making the progress they say they are. They've got three "Information Systems" staff, and it's not a lot to ask to update a web page once a day. I'm sure "Member and Club Services" (staff of NINE people) don't already have a spreadsheet with all the data already.
