CommentsMakes one think in terms of diaPRs :-) Imran Posted by: Imran Anwar at December 17, 2008 6:08 PM That is absolutely priceless! Forget about spell-check; that person needs brain-check. Posted by: Andrea Harris at December 17, 2008 6:12 PM Sounds like the first time the flack was more pissed than you. ;) Posted by: Ike at December 17, 2008 6:19 PM People's lack of concern to follow even the simplest of directions (what publicists, publishers, journalists do and don't cover)never ceases to amaze me. If they care so little about the preferences of the person they're pitching, why on earth should they expect that person to care any more?
