Q: Is the common practice in PR to not admit when one is wrong and, instead, to deflect, changing the subject when it’s unpleasant? Do they teach that in PR school or do people just learn that on the job, developing bad habits that perhaps their bosses love?

A: No! Except in MAGAworld where it is the norm.

Nice piece!

Andy, thanks. I know many folks in PR who shoot straight and stick to the truth. Some in DC, however, see their roles differently. Thx for your comment.

Thanks, Elaine. Some detachment is essential, I think.
