Nearly Half of Dallas IABC Say They Should Ignore Nasty Bloggers.

Bulldog Reporter is a PR industry rag that hasn't much changed since I took my vow of PR celibacy back in 2001. You have to scroll down to the second story on the page to read the article. Despite warnings by an expert that we bloggers have become a "legitimate media target" for PR practitioners, a poll shows that IABC Dallas members think:

46 percent of respondents believe bloggers should be ignored, or managed by customer relations departments

42 percent say bloggers should be handled by media relations representatives

6 percent say neither of these departments should handle angry bloggers

6 percent say they don't know

I see a great future in the restaurant service industry a large percentage of those who were polled.

They have a nifty report on a poll about who should handle us nasty bloggers and who should handle us, quoting an expert who says we have become a "legitimate media outlet," because we seem to be able to spread messages quickly. You have to scroll down to the second story from the link, because they are using old technology.

There is something happening.  They don't know what it is and it really is a shame.
