Debate over that old PR chestnut, transparency, rages on given the Canal Rocks affair (sounds like a great movie, eh?) There’re cries for all lobbyists to be registered, much like we’ve heard for PR agencies. But with so many of the ‘top’ PR agencies associated with some form of PR crisis, that’s no guarantee of good behaviour, tho. You know, there’s a simpler way to solve the transparency situ here in Oz and in the States, and it’s called the Fedora Act.
Just check for evidence of a trilby, stetson or even a pith, and bang, there’s your devious lobbyist. Easy.
