When you’re on the NAB press list, you get spammed

Steve Safran April 6th, 2007

They’re coming like crazy now - about one an hour. “Invitations” from companies that are going to have booths at NAB are pouring into the LR inboxes. When you have press passes, you get this sort of stuff. Now, I like having information about news and products that may interest the LR Faithful. I’m not one of those “Under no circumstances should PR people come near me” types. But good Lord - couldn’t they at least know what we cover here? We’re not exactly the place to come for information about “B2B end-to-end turnkey solutions.” It’s a common newsroom complaint: know what we cover before asking us for coverage. We’ll play the game, but you have to know the rules.
