Please. I try to use my sarcasm professionally!

  People understand that freedom of speech does not mean
that someone
 has the right to falsely shout 'fire' in a crowded cinema, but people
 also understand that calling an organisation transparent, when it is
 in fact semi-transparent, is misleading. 
It's only misleading if one chooses to understand "transparency" in  
the naive way that some might choose to understand "freedom of speech."
