PR Guy Says Bloggers Should Shut Up And Take Press Releases

When we first started Techdirt, one of the things I said clearly on the site was not to send us press releases, as we had no interest in writing about them. Yet, so many PR people clearly chose not to read the site and they send them anyway. They don't read the fact that we don't want press releases -- and in most cases they clearly don't read the site because the press releases obviously are about stuff we never write about. And it just gets worse and worse. These days, my inbox is filled with more press releases than regular email -- and I don't post any of them. You would think that PR people would eventually recognize how inefficient it is to send these press releases -- but since it's so easy to just cc every email address in a press list, they never even think about it.

12 July Interesting piece in The Guardian highlighting the accomplished PR job that has been done around Princes Harry and William. It details how their profile has been transformed from one shaped by their own youthful 'misadventure' and the paparazzi to one that is carefully managed by PR. Witness a wealth of tabloid-friendly publicity stunts and photo opportunities, such as Harry's school-building in Lesotho last week. The underlining truth is common to all PR. If you wait for the media to seek you out or come across you when you're compromised, their angle will not be the one you would choose. Whereas if you approach the press proactively, then the coverage will be far more positive.

PR is often thought of as something of a black art, but for the jobbing hack it’s more of an occasional saviour and consistent nuisance. Its greatest practitioners are worthy of grudging respect and the right ‘strategy’ - an irritating PR buzz word in its own right - can undoubtedly yield impressive results, but what happens when there’s nothing behind the bluster?
