Typical corporate response by firing Ford after the article. He was just pointing out some flaws or oversights in how modern helmets are manufactured, then the helmet manufacturers threaten to boycott the magazine because of the article.
An intelligent response would be for the helmet manufacturer to re evaluate their products and see if Fords findings were in fact true before ignoring his research, then maybe change the manufacturing process to offer everyone a safer helmet. Instead they back out of funding the magazine insisting that the safety of their helmets are fine. Childish.
Whether the helmet manufacturers realize it or not, it is also in their best interest to produce a safer helmet too. After all someone could sue them if the helmet worn in a crash actually caused more harm than it could have prevented.
