It is the same pattern and cadence that Sheryl Sandberg uses when describing exciting new privacy initiatives in interviews, but it's also used by PR managers at many tech firms.
Is there a PR school where they describe the subconscious thought process of a typical audience:
> Sure, I want to join this really fun bandwagon with all of the enthusiastic people developing privacy policies at Facebook, or learning all the great ways that a no deal Brexit is going to be truly awesome for the UK. However, that's just my emotional response to wanting to be included, so please give me some nominally rational arguments for post hoc rationalization
I think it probably works, at least until it is overused, but I am curious about whether there is a name for the whole approach.
- repolfx 7y agoWhat convention? You mean stating what you believe and then providing arguments for it? I'm not sure why you believe a normal argumentation structure is somehow linked to PR firms. Do you have any actual rebuttals or, would you rather just make innuendos and insinuations (about what I'm not entirely sure).
