VIEWS OF A MEDIA/PR CONSULTANT HIRED JUST OVER TWO WEEKS AGO
The following paragraphs are taken from a 4,000-word report completed by a well-known media and public relations consultant who owns a firm based in Manhattan.
He drew these conclusions drawing entirely on public documents, mainly media archives, as well as court documents.
He did not ask me for my view of the facts, or my interpretation of the case.
What is striking is that if a relatively detached and observant reader has followed the narrative of my case at William & Mary in the papers, that reader can tell that the College's story about me does not add up. It is also evident that, for reasons not apparent in the media coverage, I have been and continue to be badly treated. The reader can tell that a major part of the story is hidden from view.
Reporters in the media know this, and for this reason, the crisis at W&M is on their radar. Mike (the consultant) believes the pressure from press inquiries will lead to the case being blown open soon.
In his business, he says they divide potential stories into two main categories: "regional" and "national."
This story, Mike said, will be national.
