PR Spam

PR Spam
29th   Jan

The PR spam row has seen a heated debate between journalists and the PR industry about the etiquette of issuing press releases.

After various bloggers named and shamed the PR people who have ‘spammed' them, a campaign has now been launched to try and stop the inboxes of hacks and bloggers being flooded with a PR's ‘breaking news'.

As someone who has worked as a newspaper journalist and a PR account manager, I have actually quite enjoyed keeping up with the argument, especially as I can see both sides.
