Scoop!

Scoop!
Journalists appear in fiction in many guises and play many roles. Sometimes they provide central characters, often they intrude on the action, their attentions as unwelcome as they often are in real life. Scoop! gathers together these appearances under a variety of themes, some amusing, some trivial, some giving an insight into how the Press works and how it is seen to impact on our society.

PR Disasters Awards 2007 - call for entries

From Gerry McCusker:

PR gaffe site PRdisasters.com is now accepting your nominations for the Top 10 PR Disasters of 2007?As always, it's a competitive field - in the blogosphere we've had Edelman & Wal-Mart, as well as seasoned Ozzie journo Terry Lane taking a fake blog at face value. In the public speaking arena, Sheik Hilali (uncovered meat) is duking it our with Oz politician Kim Beasley (not that Rove, Kim). And in the "maybe there was something in the water" category, Mel Gibson is holding off a late, lurching charge from NewsLtd's Glenn Milne. Of course, the Iraq war is a perennial on the PR disaster radar.

But send in your favourites (ranked from 1 to 10 with 1 being the biggest disaster) right away. If Gerry can figure out how to most fairly give away a newly reprinted copy of Public Relations Disasters, he'll do that, too.
