A slightly more accurate translation:

Oh, you actually noticed. We are currently waiting for our pack of lawyers to prepare the paperwork to file a suit against GamersNexus for what we are going to claim is libel. Rest assured, we are committed to trying to find some escape goat to throw under the bus and minimizing the damage to our investors.

Literally the etymology though. 'scape instead of escape is the original “mispronunciation” otherwise it’s just a straight-forward translation of Azazel, the goat which escaped in Levictus 16.

Escape goat is probably a Trailer Park Boys reference, some of us just like to deliberately mispronounce things in an ironic manner too.
