If a company or organization does damage control, they try to take steps to limit or minimize you know, make it as small as possible. To minimize, the amount of damage caused by some event or scandal , especially a scandal. This usually suggests it is already impossible to avoid the damage completely. So if you're doing damage control the damage, at least probably a certain percentage of damage has already been done. And you try to limit it so that you know it doesn't go way too far. Okay let's continue. The British sometimes use the term damage limitation. So you might hear British use damage limitation instead of damage control. Americans use damage control. Okay, and here's a couple of examples here. Example number one. After that scandal broke the company quickly had taken measures or taken steps to do damage control. Okay. That's a typical example or number two. You know, as a real-life example here. After Tiger Woods had a huge sex scandal, several years ago. Yeah. It is a little while ago now. He gave a formal apology in front of the media to do damage control. Yeah. Probably his press agents, probably made him do this. You know, to try to save his career or so that his image did not get you know, too seriously hurt. That you know, he doesn't lose some major sponsors. Okay. So anyway, that is he tried to do as much damage control as he could at that time. All right. Anyway, I hope you got it. I hope it was clear. Thank you for your time. Bye- bye,
