PR 101 Lesson of the Day: What Not to Do (aka FEMA's Fake Press Conference)
09:56 AM / 28 Oct 2007 Filed in: randomness
Unfortunately, the following is not a joke:
WASHINGTON, Oct 26 (Reuters) - The U.S. government's main disaster-response agency apologized on Friday for having its employees pose as reporters in a hastily called news conference on California's wildfires that no news organizations attended.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency, still struggling to restore its image after the bungled handling of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, issued the apology after The Washington Post published details of the Tuesday briefing.
"We can and must do better, and apologize for this error in judgment," FEMA deputy administrator Harvey Johnson, who conducted the briefing, said in a statement. "Our intent was to provide useful information and be responsive to the many questions we have received."
Here is the rest of the Reuter's press release. But to really enjoy this stupidity in action, check out the actual "press conference" below.

Yeah, this is the stuff that keeps Jon Stewart and the Daily Show stuff fully employed.

OK, now I don't think I will ever be able to afford
these guys. I was watching the Today Show on NBC
yesterday morning, and for the second (or is it
third) time, they were on it. Actually, good for
them. These guys have a great sense of humor and
their work is quite funny.
In this latest short movie, the JibJabbers continue down their parody path with an entertaining look at George W and friends singin' about their next four years in Washington. And no JibJab production would be the complete, without a bunch of moping Democrats, world leaders, etc holding their heads in their hands.
