The '"rogue engineers" myth' comes from the CEO of VW USA. http://www.newyorker.com/business/currency/an-engineering-th...

Edit: The rest of your comment is false. The day the news came out, Winterkorn posted a video acknowledging the problem but not mentioning resignation -- he did not resign that day. And when he did resign, he explicitly said that he was not aware of any wrongdoing on his part. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/24/business/international/vol...

That's an interesting translation. He said he took the responsibility, but was unaware of wrongdoing when he resigned (I read the original announcement).

So, no, my comment isn't false — but yours isn't either.
