Which is such a lie, because going to the press is exactly what gets a lot of apps re-evaluated and accepted.

Eh, it _can_ be a lie. This is some form of the quandary “if you owe the bank a million dollars, you’re in trouble; if you owe the bank a billion dollars, the bank is in trouble.”

99% of app devs will not benefit from “running to the press.” Those that will will know it for certain.

I've seen apps get their decisions reversed simply due to a post becoming popular on HN or Reddit. You don't have to be a major player for public shaming to work against apple.
