In light of all the corrupted companies out there... do you trust what "they" say?

As a graduate from Seton Hall University who studied public relations I ask myself if this profession is going backward instead of forward. My former professor who writes many academic studies (now I have begun also) thought it was a fair question to ask the general public, so what do you think? This is a short survey 10 quick questions about what you think and the effect on others... it would be huge if you can take the minute or two and take this:

Thank you all,

I took the survey. IMO, the survey itself is a bit biased...

Hope it helps your class

I don't even trust this survey. Everyone has an agenda. It's up to you to know and understand what that agenda is so that you can know what you are dealing with.

As a former journalist, I have worked at multiple large publications. Any journalist influenced by a PR should lose their job. Didn't like the survey

agreed. start with most of the major news organizations. I actually like newsbusters.org because they point out all kinds of hypocrisy and bias in mainstream media.
