Eons ago, when I told my father I rather be in PR than journalism, you could tell he was disappointed. As an old time newspaper and radio man who lived for the fact that the media held power to account and allowed the truth to prevail then you can understand why he furrowed his brows at my decision. In his world PR was the anti-christ, the antithesis of good reporting.

I think they are. And it is not slow and protracted but rather quite fast and painful. And like any disease it's spreading to other parts of the whole. TV and radio no doubt are feeling the pinch.

Lynn Espinoza has an interesting question on her blog and it something I've been mulling over for days.
