It doesn't matter. Like I said above in my edit: Caesar's wife must be above reproach. He doesn't get to say weird things that are taken out of context. He needs either better handlers or to step back and let someone more relatable be the person who represents the company to outsiders.
I suppose from a purely PR angle you have a point.
I once watched an interview with Steve Ballmer sitting next to him was a MSFT PR/Lawyer guy, his job was basically to hit Ballmer with a stick if he felt something stupid was about to be said, I suppose that approach could be adopted by Google, or better yet Google needs to get their women to do the interviews, as women perceived as more aware and sensitive to the privacy issue and it wouldn't hurt Google's image to show off their lady Googlers.
