Willoughby PR: February 2012
http://willoughbypr.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 22 February 2012. Sun on Sunday faces a big battle for readers. I note my learned colleague’s blog from yesterday and his cautious optimism for the Sun on Sunday’s success, but I think it is worth taking a rather more sceptical view. Veteran Fleet Street watchers, like Roy Greenslade. Have declared that Rupert Murdoch has pulled a rabbit out of the hat, simultaneously getting Sun journalists back on board after talk of mutiny in the ranks and reinforcing his commitment to UK newspapers.

Willoughby PR: Forty years ago today journalism started on the road towards its finest hour!

Qantas grounded all of its flights during strike action and saw over 70,000 customers affected but it wasn’t so much the cancelations that infuriated people. It was their robotic, impersonal approach via their social media feeds that sparked the backlash. And will certainl...

Willoughby PR: You can’t have your cookie and eat it…
http://willoughbypr.blogspot.com/2012/06/you-cant-have-your-cookie-and-eat-it.html
Friday, 8 June 2012. You can’t have your cookie and eat it…. Now before you ask, I’m not talking about the tasty baked treat loved by a sesame street character with a voracious appetite, but rather the less appetising internet variety. You can have your chocolate chip cookie and eat it you’ll be glad to know, but for the other type of cookie it is a different matter. Now, this all seems fairly straight up and not something you could really pick a bone with – who wants to be followed unknowingly? However,...

This week and Labour MP Tom Watson publishing his new book, Dial M for Murdoch.
