Hold the Ketchum
Amy Gahran thinks that the Ketchum PR firm will launch fake blogs or post phony comments on behalf of the Bush Administration. She has no proof and is just speculating, but it sure does arouse the mind, no? Amy writes...
Ketchum's PR practitioners are not slouches. They are sharp professionals, well aware of the growing and evolving role of online media in public discourse and perception. If there’s an online angle (straightforward or covert) that they could work to a client’s advantage, they’d be all over it. That’s what they get paid the big bucks for.
I’m not trying to cast aspersions on Ketchum in particular. The federal government works with lots of PR agencies. Ketchum just happens to be one of the biggies.
But never mind Ketchum, Amy. What's to stop the Democrats or someone else from launching a fake fake blog and then pointing the whodunit finger at Ketchum?
