I love this story about John Edwards,
"you cannot build relationship on lies," said Sweetser. If we act by this motto we can really work to change to image of public relations, from spin-masters to valued partners.
The problem is can people actually believe that politicans can be truthful.

Dr. Carl's "Dell Hell" story is similar to the dirty Apple macbooks.
In both cases, blogs and comments/responses from customers became a driving force in making both companies turn their heads, listen to what their unhappy customers were saying, and give a solution.
Feel the power of social media!
