They did give out clean drinking water, the entire time. The story was purposely misleading to give the SBC a cheap shot instead of appreciation for all their hard work.

Sorry, I've read through the thread and its pretty clear. It was a stupid thing for them to do. Water is water, and all of it has labels on it. Big deal.
I'm glad to hear that they don't need any more donations, if they can afford to be so choosy about what they'll stoop to pass out.
