Comments on: Embargo Breakers: A Nobody’s Perspective http://emilecambry.wordpress.com/2008/08/21/embargo-breakers-a-nobodys-perspective/ Technology is an enabling force to make our lives simpler Thu, 10 Sep 2009 01:32:35 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Emile Cambry http://emilecambry.wordpress.com/2008/08/21/embargo-breakers-a-nobodys-perspective/#comment-47 Emile Cambry Fri, 22 Aug 2008 19:45:52 +0000 http://emilecambry.wordpress.com/?p=47#comment-47 Svetlana, I agree with you 110%. I was being slightly sarcastic with the idea that there needs to be full transparency, but sometimes it seems like the PR agencies are in the middle of the mix, and could sort out all the misunderstandings, but it goes unnoticed, and undisclosed. Of all the embargoes that I know that were broken this week, a high percentage were a result of these blogs given the green light to post, yet nobody bothered to clear the air, which yielded resentment. I agree with your last point though, nobody wants to make enemies, especially in this small in-crowd. Svetlana, I agree with you 110%.

This is not the place where everyone is friendly to everyone and finding a new reason to accuse each other publicly will make it even worse, I'm afraid.
