Found you via Techcrunch. Jason Calanis IS on to something. PR has changed, and not necessarily for the better. While there are still plenty of classy guys around (like yourself) the industry is getting reconfigured by a bunch of kids whose idea of PR success is getting lots of followers on Twitter, flirting with “influencers” and acting out. My teenaged daughter has a thousand friends in Facebook. Does that mean you should hire her to manage your Toyota client? These kinds of people are giving your industry a bad name and inspiring people like me to hit the “block” feature more and more often.

Greatpost – it’s such a shame that so many good PRs get let down by the minority bad ones.

There’s been a few posts recently talking about bad PR practice, Dennis Howlett’s in particular was pretty angry – http://accmanpro.com/2008/12/03/pr-is-so-over/

Jen Mitch has suggested a Good Pitch PR blog..http://socialmediapr.wordpress.com/ grand idea I think.

Good read Dave. A few bad PR people should not spoil it for the rest of us who vette contacts very carefully with highly appropriate pitches. Leaving message after message for reporters is not only ineffective, it’s harassment.
