Mike Tyson: Not Media Trained
Vin Diesel is media trained. Robin Williams is media trained. Mike Tyson? Not so much. (Language not safe for work.)
Advice to PR Job-Seekers: Don’t Do This
Check out this video that Yale senior Aleksey Vayner sent out to HR departments, along with an 11-page resume.
Aleksey’s best line: “Ignore the losers.”
Oops — guess we’ve already screwed that one up.
(Via Break.)
Update: The video was pulled from Break and also YouTube. Looks like Aleksey has a lawyer (along with no sense of humor). For more on Aleksey, see Gawker’s coverage.
The Following Clothing Brands Are No Longer Allowed in the Orchard
Adrants has alerted us to the fact that a Nashville nightclub, On the Rocks, has banned patrons who wear certain clothing brands. The choice of brands, like Sean John, FUBU and Phat Farm, seems to suggest that the bar’s management, at best, has something against hip-hop culture — and at worst, is guilty of racial profiling.
In protest of this discrimination, Media Orchard hereby deems the following clothing brands off-limits in the Orchard:
1. Abercrombie & Fitch
2. Banana Republic
3. Wrangler
4. No Fear
5. Tommy Hilfiger
6. Mossimo (Target)
7. Dr. Martens
We’re takin’ it to the Man, now. So watch out.
