You don't think the person who's ultimately responsible for a company's policies is important in a discussion of those policies? There's nothing arrogant about knowing you're the one at the center of a news story.

I do. Very important. That's not what happened here.

I don't believe showing up, making a statement and then fucking off again is any kind of 'discussion' or 'taking responsibility'. It's PR.

Paying lip service to recurring issues (and this seems to have escaped people: this has happened multiple times) that are damaging people, is not taking responsibility. It's PR.
