Keep in touch, as we're going to be pushing out plenty of content online as the series is being filmed, and if all goes well, we'll be widening the scope beyond the first series and New Zealand... You seem to have done some pretty cool things getting the spotlight on the businesses you've worked with, Cheers, Tim. Thanks for the write up Melissa,

As PR professionals, we should brush-off Cohen's asinine comments. However, they were made on a fairly reputable program (one that I watch every Sunday). So I applaud your post and encourage other PR folks to raise a stink about this guys unwarranted comments. Casey Boggs LT Public Relations http://ltpublicrelations.com/blog/ Solid blog posting, John.

I agree with Ben & think MoPR is better positioned than most PR firms to adapt to the changing landscape of how media is distributed & read. It's great that MoPR actively researches emerging technologies & understands how it effects the way consumers get their information. I think you really nailed it here: "Struggling print media need all the help they can get. Using new media and technology such as focused, niche search engines and setting up easy to subscribe to RSS feeds is a great start for publishers to help add value to their content, keep readers – even gain readers – and more importantly nab ad revenue." Technology is our friend, not the enemy. Thanks for your thoughts & feedback.
