Chillicothe and LeBron

June 21, 2011

Chillicothe Gets It 
      
The Chillicothe Gazette ran an editorial by Web Face's John McGory on the need for The Ohio State University to go to school to brush up on today's new marketing rules.  The university and its football program got caught up using old school crisis management tactics in today's hyperactive media world.  Not surprisingly, the university took a public relations beating.    Read the story here http://www.chillicothegazette.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/201106190730/OPINION02/106190309

LeBron and the Real World                            
George Vecsey wrote an excellent article in the June 18 New York Times focused on LeBron James' rant about fans getting back to the real world.  Vecsey said LeBron did his best Richard Nixon imitation ("You won't have Dick Nixon to kick around anymore") in venting his frustration over fans' glee over his failures.  Vecsey discusses social media and its role in the growing nastiness between sports stars and the people who pay the freight.  He even quotes a Tom T. Hall song.  Got to love it.   Read it here
