Corante Preps Debut of Flackster PR Blog

Blog network Corante is starting a new PR blog called Flackster, which will be written by Michael O'Connor Clarke, President of Mansfield Communications, a mid-sized PR firm based in Toronto and New York. Nothing is posted on the blog just yet, but you can find a tease post here. Flackster will explore, through the voices of PR professionals, journalists, cultural commentators and others, how the rapid rise of social media and participatory journalism is impacting both the business of news reporting and the role of public relations. Hmmm, sounds very familiar. Welcome Michael! The more of us the merrier.
