Now how do you know that for certain?

I worked in the news industry for many years and took part in many contingency planning meetings at the time of Eddie Shah coming on the scene and News International moving to Wapping. These meetings were highly secret and the plans only known to senior management. Many companies have contingency plans that are known to only a few because of the sensitive nature of them, particularly if unions are a factor.
