PR in BW: This week’s Business Week includes an article about political activists on the left and right and their increasing focus on business behavior and particularly corporate donations to large companies. There’s nothing in there that will be new to public relations people, but it’s interesting to see the issues getting some play in a national business magazine.

The same issue also includes a profile of Eric Dezenhall, author of Nail ‘Em and unapologetic advocate of a confrontational approach to activists. Dezenhall often sounds dogmatic rather than pragmatic in his approach to crisis management, but anyone who’s pissed off Bill Moyers can’t be all wrong.
