Stop PR plugs
by pinaki bhattacharya on May 01, 2007 12:43 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

thought it would be an informed article on a new launch. instead i find a glib pr plug. It is just not on. just because they will spend a few bucks on your website, it does not mean you will sell your editorial soul.

Dear Moo, what i had written in the first place was an explanation of what is wrong with this kind of journalism. You obviously did not understand it.
and dude you chose to get personal with 'LOL- YOu!!' right?

LOL was for the philosophical "sell your editorial soul", anyways..still why is it a problem? Your explanation does not give "what is wrong with this kind of journalism" !

Media get paid to advertise. Not sure what you work for, but all of us do pay to get some of the biz news or some better coverage to a product. That's a reality that's going on for many years.

Moo Glee,
Stop yapping. Relax.
Give the peanut a chance to grow.
I have my fingers crossed.

Dear bro -- I am sure it feels great to be a cynic, I know it does. How happy could you get to feel that someone has a peanut brain ! Never mind..you are one of those who chose to get personal, I will leave it there.
