Sometimes the media messes up. And sometimes they can’t fix it, what’s said is said. It’s awful and it’s hard to except. One of our long time clients was mentioned on air with two false statements in a recent radio broadcast. And, unfortunately the only thing we can do about it is speak with integrity about the event our client has ran for the past decade as new events pop up aiming to emulate them.
In this mention, there’s two things wrong and a few things falsely assumed.

To start with, the tickets to The Fan Fest Society sold out last year (not unsold) and the cost of their tickets is wrongly mentioned. Also, ten years ago the client held the first ever fan created Festival of Living Art event in the town this new event popped up in. And, this event is not being held by the town of New Milford, there’s a event company that is hosting it in their town. There’s a lot more wrong in the article, but we’ll stop there.
Whether this is a result of the media outlet misleading listeners or the competing event sharing inaccurate information, there’s a lack of transparency and integrity. Unfortunately that seems to run rampant these days. It’s unsettling. If you know better, do better. That’s what we tell our kids and that’s what we’d tell i95rock in Connecticut.
Take a deep breath folks, write good content, speak the truth for your clients, clean up any mess you make and wear a smile.
