Groundswell as a Textbook?

Jul-10-2008 By Barbara Nixon

GroundswellI’ll be using Groundswell as a text to augment Reputation Management in a Corporate PR class this fall. Are other public relations educators using Groundswell? If so, perhaps we could collaborate on discussion questions and exercises. Please drop me a line!

WSAV’s Obama Oops

Jul-10-2008 By Barbara Nixon
My husband noticed this on the news at 6:31 this morning (July 8, 2008). I jumped out of bed, grabbed the camera and took a picture of the TV screen. WSAV had a video of Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama, with the caption saying “Ardsley Park Shooting Suspect.” They ran this not once, but twice. I bet someone’s in trouble now. . .

It will be interesting to see if WSAV apologizes for this mistake.

 

UPDATE: During the 6:30 a.m. hour on July 9, I heard Kim Gusby apologize for the mis-captioned video clip.
