Cleveland Browns accuse Kellen Winslow of verbally abusing public …
The Plain Dealer – cleveland.com, OH
BEREA — In a copy of Kellen Winslow’s suspension letter obtained by The Plain Dealer, it’s revealed Winslow was not only suspended by the Browns for statements they felt were disparaging to the club, but also for what the team described as “profane verbal abuse of a Club’s public relations member in the locker room” following the game at Washington. While Winslow was sitting at his locker last Sunday preparing to be interviewed, he asked director of communications Amy Palcic to leave so he could speak to a reporter. It was clear he wanted to speak his mind without a member of the public relations staff listening. It’s common practice for one of them to be there when big-name players such as Winslow and Braylon Edwards are interviewed. Neither Winslow nor Palcic raised their voices during the exchange, which went like this, according to The Plain Dealer’s audiotape.
Amazon Watch:Chevron Asked to Disclose Relationship to Pat Murphy

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct 24, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) –
The environmental group Amazon Watch today called on Chevron and the San
Francisco-based writer Pat Murphy to divulge their financial
relationship in light of disclosures that Murphy’s
website accepts fees for editorial control of news articles written
under Murphy’s byline. “Chevron’s public
relations office and Pat Murphy appear to be engaged in an online
deception,” said Mitch Anderson, an Amazon
Watch official. “Murphy writes pro-Chevron
articles under the masthead of a commercial blog cleverly designed to
look like a newspaper. ”
The disclosure comes at an awkward time for Chevron, which on Monday
begins a trial in San Francisco federal court on charges it helped the
Nigerian military shoot and kill unarmed villagers who had taken over an
oil platform in an act of civil disobedience. Murphy was slated to cover
the trial as a self-styled “independent”
journalist with a press pass from the San Francisco Police Department. Murphy’s website, the San Francisco Sentinel,
has the look and feel of an online newspaper and does not make it clear
that it accepts fees for control of editorial content.
Council of Public Relations Firms Announces 2009 Board of Directors

My focus this past year has been on providing a voice for the industry,
something I think we achieved with the successful launch of the weekly
online publication, The Firm Voice. That mission will be
increasingly important going into a year with so much uncertainty, both
economically and politically. The good news for public relations firms
is that we have never been stronger as an industry or better positioned
with our clients as strategic counselors. ”
“Council members —
and the industry at large – will benefit from another year of Ray’s
stewardship,” said Kathy Cripps, president of
the Council of Public Relations Firms. “He is
a tremendous leader, and in one year has already left an impressive
record of accomplishments at the Council. Ray is the perfect person to
lead our organization into its second decade as the home of America’s
leading public relations firms. ”
