Some are questioning how transparent the Chicago Blackhawks really are after the team’s owner had an explosive response to questions from the media during a live town hall with executives on Wednesday.
Rocky Wirtz later apologized for his response.
"Tonight, at the Chicago Blackhawks town hall, my response to two questions crossed the line. I want to apologize to the fans and those reporters, and I regret that my response overshadowed the great work this organization is doing to move forward," said Wirtz."We have the right leaders and right processes in place to create a safe environment for our employees and players."
The Executive Director for the Chicago Alliance Against Sexual Exploitation Kaethe Morris Hoffer said although the video was painful to watch, it is"useful." "It was a live demonstration of what every survivor fears," said Hoffer."[It was] very useful for so many people to see how often the real discomfort that people have with addressing and grappling with these problems.""It’s critical for any organization to demonstrate it has learned from the past," said Hoffer."It has to be able to talk about the past.
