Scanning the annual Brand Keys list of 50 Most Patriotic Brands in America, you might get the idea that America is synonymous with fast food, fast cars, whiskey, and blue jeans. Who can argue with that? Yet it’s one thing for a brand to have earned an association with all things USA, but another for it to be pandering to patriotism in hopes of riding a red, white, and blue wave.

Social media is everywhere, giving companies a new way to connect with their target audience. Of course, as valuable as social media can be in the right circumstances, it also adds a certain level of uncertainty to a crisis communication strategy.

Leaked internal communications can be strategically valuable assets rather than just risks to manage. When used proactively, these leaks can highlight leadership and innovation—qualities that resonate in today’s media. By approaching internal comms with a dual-purpose approach, companies shift from mere risk avoidance to leveraging these moments as credible public messages around strategy.

Thanks to high-profile crises, viral issues, and fun television series like Scandal , crisis management is being seen more and more as a “sexy” and thrilling profession or service offering. While the allure is understandable—from the outside, I realize it can look like a fast-paced, exciting career filled with adventure and heroism—what I’m seeing more and more is that this image and allure is presenting a high-risk scenario to many organizations.

We’d all love to be financially independent and not have to work at all. I don’t have anything for you on that today. But we’d also like to be independent in where and when we work, and that’s closer than you think. This might sound idealistic, but I firmly believe it’s entirely pragmatic and achievable. You can build a great track record and communicate it to your bosses so clearly that you get to set your hours and work space.

Outbrain is one most recognizable brands in advertising technology (adtech). You’ve probably seen some of the native ads the company makes available even if you weren’t aware they were rendered by Outbrain. Where I see Outbrain the most, is at the bottom of news sites.

It’s reported that the head coach had received a call from Putin before the match for some “encouraging words”.

PR Lessons From Las Vegas. Anyone who has been to Las Vegas (or seen the Hangover) knows that the strip is filled with glitzy hotels, casinos, amphitheaters and enough entertainment to provide even the biggest thrill-seeker with everything they could want. It’s also full of life lessons, including a few that relate to PR. Las Vegas, a city known for risk, that often comes with very little promise of reward, in many ways serves as a metaphor for a day in the life of a PR practitioner.
