I never understood how you could follow 20,000 anyway. I'm extremely selective about who I follow, and who's following. It's like the rest of PR today: you have to target your niche market.
Even if one sentence was taken out of context; that sentence is not based on fact. The statistics are rubbish. If that's the case, how much of the rest of the book is baseless? That's why it doesn't deserve a read. People, it's a published work. Sources and statements have to be credible.
Now I read someone quoting a definition of public relations from WIkipedia (yes, you, robynslaughter). There really are some people who have no concept of credible sources, and of course this debate stemmed from that fact. Get your fact right for start, because everything begins with research.
This bloke Vaynerchuk obviously knows zilch about PR (and reputation management, the heart of PR). He's just lost his credibility and reputation. There really is some crap masquerading as credible material. The publisher should also be taken to task. I wouldn't even discuss anything further than that. It doesn't warrant discussion. What is does warrant is a campaign against shoddy work like this. @pr_doctor
