In this opinion article, the author discusses the growing trend of corporate-approved apologies and the potential consequences of this practice. The author argues that the rise of public relations experts and crisis management firms has led to a standardized and often insincere approach to apologies issued by companies and public figures. The article highlights several high-profile cases where apologies have been carefully crafted to avoid legal liabilities or maintain public image, rather than genuinely acknowledging and addressing wrongdoing. The author emphasizes the importance of authentic apologies in building trust and fostering accountability in both the corporate and political realms.
