There's that, too. Thanksgiving escape begins tonight (in theory).

Off topic: I was a shareholder a few years ago in a different digital security software company. When they announced the announcement was going to be on Thanksgiving Eve, there was a massive rush to the exits.

It's a truism, a given, that both in government and in marketing / public relations, bad news is released into the weekend. I haven't ever previously noticed a debate about this.
