Just to put this out there…. This is the current US President commenting on the brutal murder of a national treasure, whose family has made incredible contributions to one of the nation’s leading industries. Let that sink in.

Please check out my latest post on what I learned at Money/2020 USA about PR, third-party content and messaging, armed only with lights, cameras and a set of media credentials. www.linkedin.com/pulse/someth...

Something for Nothing: What Happens When You Can’t Give Third-Party Content Away?
Last month, we conducted an experiment of sorts, combining two of my favorite things: public relations and video content. A little context first.

Congrats to @flypsp.bsky.social and every other airport with a backbone for not airing this ridiculous video. Once the shutdown is over, don’t run the previous one either (it was just as partisan/bad/creepy) kesq.com/news/2025/10...

I'm all for transparency in government, but I'm not sure ICE's promotion of its own cruelty on social media is a particularly good use of our tax dollars www.buzzfeed.com/alanavalko/i...

This Post By ICE Has The Internet Absolutely Enraged
"The fact that our government is treating people like this is disgusting. The fact they are bragging about it makes it so much worse."

It's great when you discover something to be grateful for.

We should honor our military every day, but having a parade today feels woefully tone deaf as we splitscreen watch what’s going on in Minnesota, the militaristic back & forth between 🇮🇱 & 🇮🇷 & 🇷🇺 & 🇺🇦, #NoKings, & what ICE has done to create LA unrest. We’re all watching. I hope everyone is absorbing

If, like me, you are one of those purists who insists early R.E.M. was the best R.E.M., I am about to monopolize your weekend. R.E.M. just dropped a five-track benefit EP with two revelatory remixes of "Radio Free Europe," one of them new. See you Monday. music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I like YouTube because you go there to remember a fun Duran Duran video from 40 years ago and then 19 hours goes by and you're somehow in ISIL
