The Keef Report....In Which Our Hero Appears To Forget An Old Saw About His 'Profession'.

"Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed; everything else is public relations."

Well, whadday'a know....

A PR firm has ranked local journalists currently covering British Columbia's provincial election.

And, thanks to the horse's mouth itself, we actually know who comes out on top:



Now...

We have no idea how, exactly, 'Brandwatch's proprietary ranking system' works but you might be seriously wondering about that 'analysis of total followers' bit, unless, of course, you actually think the BeeGees were better and more influential than, say, the Ramones.

If you get my drift.

Interestingly, the Keef has used the opposite tactic in an attempt to discredit folks who, in his opinion at least, are of no consequence because they do not have enough popularity points....errrrr....followers...Perhaps more interestingly, however, was that time that the Shatner did not agree with him.

A smart list?

And without the 'Smart'est one of all!

I’m gonna have to up my game. Only blocked by four of these folks.

Keef doesn’t say who Hill and Knowlton are working for on this caper...

RossK said...

Lew - which four?

Regardless who H&R are working for* you would think the Keef would have the smarts not to re-tweet stuff that is essentially from a trolling operation.

There is also the small matter of the demo and the aggregate Y chromosome count on that list.

*I think they are likely working for themselves demonstrating to all how they can pull in influencers by clustering them in pens and showing off what all concerned consider to be some sort of rare and divine light....Or some such thing.

RossK - Baldrey, Shaw, Smyth, and the dean.

Whoa...The Four ClubMembers Of The Apocalypse!

Weirdly, the Keef hasn't blocked me...Probably don't have enough twitter followers for him to bother though.

As for the good Mr. Shaw....I wonder how many folks who actually pay attention in the #bcpoli-dome have NOT been blocked by him?
