Eww.

Someone from Edelman, the PR behemoth that does the mirage-making for Wal-Mart, among others, just emailed us. They want to “outreach,” to this “community.”

Subject: I am going to add you to me media relations list…

From: [redacted]@edelman.com

Hi there,

I am going to add you to my media relations list, if you don’t mind.

My name is Chris and I (obviously) work at Edelman — I am part of a community outreach team and I am collecting a list of folks to reach out to.

Chris

We liked his candy but felt funny after leaving the car. We never did find that quarter… Chris also has a blog which probably won’t offend anyone whatsoever.

Previously: Edelman tag, including their efforts at “Blogtrusion.”
