There are two approaches to a consumer crisis.
- Put your fingers in ears, close your eyes and repeat ‘la-la-la-la-la’. This is what we now call the ‘BA’ approach or ‘T5′ syndrome
- The alternative is to actually engage with the consumers. This is the braver but ultimately much more competent approach. Look at American Airlines ‘Crisis’ blog: http://www.womma.org/blog/2008/04/a-look-at-american-airlines-crisis-blog/

Its a very dangerous strategy not engaging with your stakeholders during a crisis. Many companies have lived to regret the “head in the sand” approach
