Yes, journalists and PRs have always had a love-hate relationship,
and yes, we both need each other. But what do you do with PRs who
answer queries by saying “it’s all on the web”, sometimes adding “it
would take me too long to get the information for you”? They want us to
do their jobs, now, as well as our own? (Even more annoying, it rarely
is “all” on the web…).
