I like how the article says Private Medical "does not advertise", then immediately follows that with some glossy, staged press shots. They don't advertise, except for the advertisement they just ran in the New York Times.
- atemerev 9y agoThe NYT, with advertisement slogans like "Truth. It has no alternatives." (When I first saw it, I had to double-check whether I am reading some English translation of one of the "Pravda" issues in the USSR -- no, it was still NYT), -- well, despite such bold claims, they often act as the principal venue for top-level PR firms. Increasingly so in the last few years -- I understand that newspaper business is in deep trouble, and I understand their envy to Facebook and Twitter, but this sounds just a teeny tiny bit unethical to me.
