The Engadget Interview: Fusion Garage's Chandra Rathakrishnan... post-fallout -- Engadget

I would assume that there are generally periods of non-communication between tech companies and their PR firms.

Sure. Well, not for a lengthy period of time. They were completely unaware of the situation. This is a transparent conversation and I want to be clear about what's happening with Fusion Garage. While Fusion Garage is not dead, [the situation] as it is right now is that we are in the midst of finding a new line of funding that we need to close to continue our existence. If we are unable to close the funding that we need, then we will certainly be in trouble. I think that it's best that the company focuses on finding the funding it needs before proceeding.

Come on! You're already dead in a sudden death match.
