You're right that most public relations pros live in a world that is very different from that of publicists. But I can't agree with those who say that a publicist isn't a PR person; it's just part of the profession from which many of us would like to distance ourselves. Thanks, Sarah.

As a recent PR grad(still job hunting), I've noticed, participated in and studied the "new" trend of blogging. <br/><br/>I think because many blogs lack standard style rules(Wonkette), much of the public dismisses them as a credible form of communication. <br/><br/>This will probably be a future problem for PR practioners who will have to decide if their or their client's blogs are too newsy or too relaxed. <br/><br/>And also, about the Lizzie Grubman show on MTV. I've always thought of her as a publicist(who runs people over), not as a PR professional. There's a big difference, at least to me.<br/><br/>Sarah Elmore I have been enjoying your blog for some time now and thought I should finally post.
