Spin bunny is down again!

This is just a quick note to say that the Spin Bunny blog appears to have disappeared again. Please don't say this is a permanent state of affairs as I find their stories hilarious.

For those who haven't a clue what I'm on about, Spin Bunny is a blog that looks at the PR business (mainly) from a UK perspective. It's irreverant and pithy to the point of being potentially libellous on occasion. A couple of agencies have been subjected to ridicule in recent months and the site was taken down a while ago when it was threatened with legal action.

I did notice a short-lived post that took a swipe at an agency that I know fairly well (I used to work for a sister agency based in the same building). Even though I thought the attack was completely unfair, I do hope that the Bunny's demise is not due to that entry, after all the carrot eater has been horrible to pretty much every agency that has attracted its attention and people in PR really ought to be able to deal with criticism in a good-humoured way, especially when it comes from a fluffy wabbit...

I deleted a couple of comments on this thread. We don't want any unpleasantries now, do we? I still don't have a clue as to who objected to our furry friend, but it would appear that he was delicious with a mustard sauce...

PS It's been several weeks since Spin Bunny disappeared this time and a resurrection is increasingly unlikely. It's not just me that's missing our furry friend, Catherine Helzerman as well as Clive Armitage at Bite PR at Bite PR agree that it's a sorry state of affairs.

Actually, I'm rather surprised that someone else hasn't started a replacement scandal blog...
