A beneficial PR. 330 $aPR is a 2.3 billion UK industry with up to 50,000 jobs, a poor reputation and yet a pervasive influence on politics and markets. Historically, it has been mostly weak propaganda and market boosterism, yet it escapes sustained academic scrutiny. This topical book analyzes all aspects of public relations, challenging accepted views and examining the industry's position as a whole. The author argues that PR needs reform because it will not go away, and because it continues to grow. Incorporating the latest facts and figures, this analysis for advanced students of business and PR provides a fresh approach to a significant contemporary subject. 410 0$aRoutledge advances in management and business studies ;$v13. 606 $aPublic relations 606 $aMass media and business 615 0$aPublic relations. 615 0$aMass media and business. 676 $a659.2 686 $a05.31$2bcl 700 $aMoloney$b Kevin$f1943-$01891340 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910679784803321 996 $aRethinking public relations$94534279 997 $aUNINA
