BBC investigation into bullying and harassment I was apprehensive when the BBC asked to interview me about my experiences of working at Sellafield. Writing it had been cathartic and I hoped at the time that it contributed to the discussion around attitudes to mental health in public relations. You might have read it. I liked it.

Reporters can only improve their productivity to a certain level, but can’t streamline interviews or fact-finding activities enough to write complete stories with greater effectiveness. Moreover, it's the same strategy employed by television news. Because of this, I’m giving the Chicago Sun-Times’ plan consideration.

Host: Thank you and this is your first time on television. Then we'd sit down to dinner with the local Rioja wine, jamon and cheeses. And on the last day, as Veneta and I were walking, I said, "Let's write a book, because this is super interesting, and a lot of people will be interested in the practical part." Hello and welcome.

She’s not only a legend in the solo PR community–she’s an outright institution in the local PR community. Although it was long overdue, the timing seemed right to interview this PR Rock Star. I know I wouldn’t still be in business for 35 years if my local media relationships weren’t deep and effective.

I had the privilege of attending the 2018 PR Bootcamp: Media Relations Conference hosted by New Product Events in New York City, where we heard editors and producers of major consumer-facing publications and television shows reveal how PR professionals should (and should never) approach them with stories.

In broadcast television, you had three choices – ABC, CBS or NBC. Today, are many more options both on the television – and on the web. Where the major daily newspaper – even the online version – was the single most influential local publication in any American city, today it’s just one among many. The same is true in print.

I normally write about and promote clients. Working in Parliament House in Canberra during sitting weeks – long hours, researching and writing speeches, attending dinners including one with the US Ambassador and a staff Christmas party where John Howard sung an impromptu song while someone played the piano. It’s time to talk about me!

Host: I listened to an interview of yours in which you say that Seychellois cuisine is very different. And I tell her, nothing is happening, we just talk a lot about Seychelles and explain that it is an affordable destination with very delicious food. How does it differ from Bulgarian, and did you find any similarities?

Television and radio’s quick ads made it fall from favor for a few decades. Depending on your business, this might mean writing in-depth articles that show you’re an authority in your niche. Giving an interview about how you won the town’s barbecue competition. Paying for advertising space can add up quickly.
