So, Helen Bach, our editor cum PR maven, sent me a link from Warner Brothers announcing the release of two new albums. I thought about writing about it, but it hardly seemed worth interrupting the days flow to rush it out. I mean, so what? Nothing personal but it is hardly the most exciting story I’ve ever heard…
Or is it?
Apparently, we were the only ones who didn’t run with it. The following folks scooped it up:
Time
Huffington Post
New York Times
Rolling stone
Wall Street Journal
MSN Music
Salon
Radio.com News
NME
Consequence Of Sound
VVN Music
Gigwise
The Guardian
All Hip Hop
Toronto Star
CBS News
And, of course, the King’s of cut and paste, Brooklynvegan.
All in all, nearly 200 websites picked up the PR handout and if I sound stroppy I’m not, but I’m not impressed either.
A quick scanning of the stories found no opinion, just the facts, tedium. This is rock nyc’s competition? Not at all. These are our masters.
