According to an Edelman analysis, the top 10 US blogs linked to each other 3,302 times over the last year. We are just talking to ourselves, looks like a whole lotta activity to our duped clients however, and that's what matters. Yes, our firm failed to be completely transparent, that whole 'practice what preach' thing is a tough call. There is a process in place that I had to let proceed through its course. Of course, that doesn't apply to any one else. Me? I am soooooo above-the-law, Godlike is more the kick, really. If you knew the PR Industry, like I do, you'd understand.

Cast the spell...Walmart be Hip. Always Low Content! Always Fake Blogs! Here have this Red Vista Laptop, early Christmas present. No wait, we want it back. Well you can give it away. Wait, no you can keep it, wait no, it's ours, yours, ours, must give away, but you must tell the world your decision. We are here for you, ruining your credibility one laptop at a time. Walmart fake blogs! Hey, Rubel can you clear this all up? [SILENCE]. Pssst, the open transparency new media world doesn't apply to me. I preach, I don't practice. You need that repeated? I mean be real.

Microscopic Thoughts. PR Industry is sure slow in learning the ways of the blogosphere. Lucky for them, I am here. Blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs, blogs.

Don't forget about my recent call to action. I should have some concrete next steps to announce real soon once a process is in place. Hopefully if we all act, we can turn the tide. If not, we can just fire up some fake blogs.

Did I mention blogs? Free laptops anyone?

Nary a PR trainwreck we can't create. Your Social Media Fuck-Uppers, at your service.
