She sounds like my kinda gal.
Well, we don't know why, only the establishment does. Because as he pointed out (very clearly) that it was all some giant conspiracy to silence him for reasons he clearly outlined and convinced us all was serious business... Then the Men in Black showed up and things got a bit hazy.
I must confess I've not even heard of it.
Ah, and it sounds as if I wouldn't like it even if I did.
I read the scenario as something similar. Except MarryWiiWhatever never said he knew the stats off the top of his head. But it is a VERY bad error if you go into an interview with someone and not done some research first. To mention something like that and have the CEO pimpsmack you in the face with some facts that was not only easy to find, but was also published on your website previously.
For us it'd be like Ashley going to some event and talking to some exec and saying (taking the current feed as an example)
Ashley: So Mario Kart 7 is going to do "alright" according to some sources...
Nintendo: It's actually the biggest seller in Japan at the moment.
Ashley: Oh...
Ashley wouldn't make this kind of mistake because he's pr0, granted it's not a carbon copy of what happened but the idea is the same.
You may not be able to rattle off statistics of every companies sales figures for the last fiscal year by memory, but if you're going to have an interview with someone important from somewhere like Ubisoft it's obvious you should do a little bit of homework.
