I find exactly the same thing. I think many PR people are just scared of new media. They feel safe when they can deal with a magazine where they can get nice neat clipping they can cut out or crop and and put in a nice fat clippings' book. Web 2:0 is a whole new world out there and while younger account execs might be comfortable with social, prosumer media, but the older technophobic directors treat it as if it's some mysterious being.
