Within minutes of putting up a story about Walmart, CivicScene was visited by someone at the Walmart headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas and the local firm Reputations Corporation, who is handling Walmart’s communications efforts.
Reputations of course is the company that bowed out of representing Walmart back in the days when the NPA formed the majority at City Hall because, according to Wal-Mart public affairs director Andrew Pelletier, neither party wanted “the perception of a conflict.” Now that things have dramatically shifted in Vancouver’s political landscape, there is no likelihood of any kind of conflict of interest accusations arising from Walmart’s decision to once again retain the services of Reputations.
Welcome to the site, ladies and gentlemen.
I like your blog. But if you track who is accessing your website that closely AND you make the information public, you probably should not accuse others of using Big Brother tactics… Good catch though.
