Appearances Are Deceiving
April 11, 2009
Peter Kafka has a wonderful post here. The title tells the tale: “‘AP Exec: “To the Untrained Eye It Looks Like We’re Stupid’” Do you think? In my opinion, the most interesting comment in the article was this paragraph:
On the confusing message that the AP presented to the world this week: Guilty as charged, says Kennedy [an Associated Press senior manager]. But he argues that his group has indeed given some thought to what it’s doing, even if it hasn’t communicated that clearly to date.
Wow. No, I don’t think appearances are deceiving in this case. What you see is what you get.
