Well, that is not surprising, really. Virgin play these contractual matters close to their chests and don't like premature leaks you get on these forums, which must be the bane of their lives. So by discrediting those sources by releasing false information to them is in VM's interests.

All businesses like to manage their news stories, releasing them at a pre-arranged time. They provide the media with information slightly ahead of time with an embargo set for the publication of that information. The media co-operate with these embargoes because they know that they will not be given this information ahead of time if they are breached, putting them at a disadvantage with their competitors.

These forums, however, are a complete free for all and play havoc with the management of business information.

Everyone should treat the stories they read on forums with a large pinch of salt unless they are backed up by company or reputable media sources.
