I can't figure out why I don't have 14, so I'm just going to blog on what I thought about the book in general.

I'm not quite sure I liked this book. It seemed like it was written by PR practitioners who were trying to either persuade young minds to join the PR field or convince people who thought PR was evil that it really isn't, there are just some bad people.

When I registered for this class, as a senior in the advertising program, I was sort of scared that it might make me change my mind and decide to do PR instead. But this book sort of persuaded me not to. A lot of people don't respect advertising, but from what this book says, even more hate people who do PR. And that's a shame, because most people don't know what being a PR practioner really is.

And now I do feel like I know more about what people in PR do (which is much less glamorous than I originally thought) but I dont know what the day-to-day is. Like what do they do when they get to the office? When they stay late? But I think I just have a hard time imagining myself doing any "real" office job that requires a degree.

In conclusion, I did learn a lot from this book, but it wasn't what I thought I was going to learn. My favorite part of the entire class was the Frontline video. Oddly enough, when I was visiting my parents for thanksgiving, my mom mentioned Coltiare Rapialle to me and said she had read a review of his book and thought of me.
