Reply #9: Well said. [View All]

I got the impression during the nineties that people with communications degrees were on the rise inside the government, particularly on the conservative side. It actually didn't matter what the government really did, it was what it said it did.

Later I was fortunate enough to get an inside view of Hill & Knowlton and some of the other PR spinners' professional techniques for corporate tort feasors who's primary mission is destruction of the truth. Of course all the exhibits are "confidential" as proprietary trade "secrets" which would damage corporate reputations beyond belief. This administration has adopted the corporate "media trained" practice on a scale that I at least had not seen before.
