I think that everyone has to read Janet Tutt's statement a bit more carefully. She never said that social media caused the problem. She didn't blame social media for the problems that have been cause by the wall.

She said social media has spread misinformation about why the wall was erected.

And I think that she is 100% correct. It's exactly what I've said about speculation in several posts on this site.
She gave the reason that the wall was built.
In another article she stated that they made a mistake and didn't realize how much that it would affect the lives of the residents.
For some people this will never end. People asked for an answer to why the wall was built. An answer was given. Many of those people are saying, that they don't believe that answer. People also wanted the wall taken down and the path reopened. That is apparently going to happen and yet many people want to continue to create controversy over who came up with the plan to open the path.
Some people have a pre conceived notion that the developer is simply a bad guy that hates all of us and cares only about money. I think that too many people have seen the movie characters Ebenezer Scrooge and Gordon Gecko and believe that those people really exist.
As far as I am concerned, the answer to why the wall was put up has been answered. An apology has been issued for the way that it was done and a solution has been arrived at that will open the wall and allow Villages residents to have the access to the businesses that we've always had.
I don't really care about any of the rest of it. I don't really care who came up with solution. I thank Janet Tutt for taking responsibility and apologizing. All that you can do when you make a mistake is explain it, apologize for it and rectify it. I see that that is what has been done in this situation.
