What’s new in this interview: Ketchum will launch a blog for its KPM practice Jeremy Pepper got an iPod mini for suggesting Ketchum to add a disclaimer to their website, KetchumIdeas.com. What’s not new: a lot of unanswered questions, and some “copy-paste” responses. More comments a little bit later.
A response to PRWeek.com’s Q&A with Adam Brown, director of eKetchum, on the Ketchum’s recent launch of its Personalized Media practice and the PR bloggers’ criticism about it.
Adam Brown, director of eKetchum (commenting on my previous post on the launch of Ketchum’s Personalized Media service): I’ve been reading the responses to Constantin’s post on the 18th and wanted to take this opportunity to respond.
