WDT: Can't Keep Old Media Happy It Seems

   Is there such a thing as too much publicity, too much self promotion, or too many press releases and Facebook posts ?
    A Times editor thinks there is and that Senator Patty Ritchie is guilty of putting out a release for any and everything, and that sometimes the positions are inconsistent with the stated goals of the GOP.
    Editor Perry White may just not like that the Senator has discovered a path around the gatekeepers.  We get to follow what the Senator does and what she believes in.

(which means she is doing her job....many pols don't)

    That's the positive side of social media and a prolific press office.
     The downside is that it can trivialize the office holder and subject them to ridicule such as is leveled at Senator Schumer (the most dangerous spot in DC is between Senator Schumer and a camera).
      Nonetheless, we know what the Senator is up to and the same is true of Ms. Ritchie. 
      Keep sending out those photos. Those of us without strict standards are glad to use provided materials, even if we do sometimes chuckle at the content.
