Speed backs Inconvenient PR Truth campaign as Realwire reveals 1.7 billion irrelevant press releases sent each year
Speed is backing an industry initiative launched this morning to address the issue of PR spam. It’s the brainchild of Realwire’s CEO Adam Parker.
We’re all aware of the issue; there isn’t anyone in the PR industry that hasn’t been guilty of spamming bloggers or journalists at some point in their career.
Research by Realwire claims that 1.7 billion irrelevant press release emails estimated to be received in total each year by UK and US Journalists alone
Mark Borkowski and Stephen Davies are also onboard from the PR industry alongside media distribution services and journalists. It would be great to see more PR agencies get behind the initiative and sign-up to its Bill of Rights.
