Oh wait, I think I get it now. Maybe the first question was too specific.
Let's make it a game of it and see if we can gather a few more "official
denials". How about 20 questions?
Was there a cost savings component in the decision to change colors?
Was recycling of raw materials a factor in the decision?
Was anybody involved in the decision recently sacked?
Does Jake actually know the reason for the change?
Was the location of the factories (China, wherever) a factor?
Did the old colors have toxic ingredients?
Was there a bad environmental impact from the old colors?
Is bionicle involved?
Does TLC upper management prefer coke, or pepsi?
Uh, I'm no good at this. Can someone else come up with the rest of
the 20?
