Ethics Skypecast set for January 13

A Saturday session should make it easier for you to be involved.

The long-promised FIR Skypecast on ethics in PR is set for 10 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on Saturday, January 13, 2007. We decided to schedule the session on a Saturday so more people could be involved. (Pesky interruptions like work shouldn’t be as much of an issue.) Join us as we record this discussion on the issues and potential solutions to what is arguably PR’s biggest problem.
