DISQUS

Mathew's comments: Did Edelman drop the ball on Wal-Mart?

    Funny thing Mathew?
    Edelman COULD have denied it all away -- there's certianly enough loose ends for plausible deniability. Or maybe just mentioned something. ANYTHING.

    My humble opinion (and really, what's that worth? :) is that the story is now LESS about Wal-Mart, and more about Edelman, and by extension Steve Rubel.

    I mean, if there really wasn't anything going on -- if Working Families for Walmart did this on its own without Edelman's ok, well why not just say so?

    How about saying anything?
    Isn't that what PR firms do?

    I have a thought. Maybe Steve Rubel was hypnotized into blogging about Google Maps this morning. ;)

    ... hmmm ... maybe not. :)

    I agree, Tony. At this point, it has become much more about Edelman's response, or lack thereof -- never the kind of position you want to be in as a PR company.

    Where is this so-called fake blog? I can't seem to find it, though there is plenty of people talking about it. Do you have the link?
