In a nutshell the Red Sox are not going to raise ticket prices for next season (they have for the last 14). The club pres says they are showing compassion for their fans.
The question the hosts ask is: is this real relief or a calculated PR move?
The best line from the segment-
“If you get good public relations out of this why is that a crime in America, why does anybody automatically assume that good public relations means something is wrong with you and you need to go to jail.”
Excellent line Mr. Kornheiser. I can’t convince some of the students I know that PR is a worthwhile major and that we are not “spin doctors”. This astute observation about our field came from a sports reporter and Monday Night Football host.
Now, if we could just convince the rest of America (or at least a few more Cameron students) that PR really is a good thing
