If I had the embargo & a journo didn't respect it, they would NEVER get info from me or my clients in the future, assuming it was agreed to.
Of course but that doesn't mean PRs shouldn't ever send an embargoed release to a journalist they don't know.
Oh, you're in the UK. You all have wild press laws & I have no clue what the norms are there. It's just laziness here; ppl shouldn't do it.
"Wild press laws" eh?! Nope. It's respect.
I was trying to de-escalate. Yes, UK has wild press laws compared to the US, so I have no idea what norms you have there.
And, as to your "respect" line, if you're a PR person trying to blast random journalists w an embargo, you've already disrespected me.
I have no relationship w/ you & you send me information — but also tell me you've preemptively & unilaterally placed limits on its use. BS.
That's not the way the world works. An embargo, just like whether something is off the record, is something done by agreement. Not one side.
I disagree. I often think some embargoes are silly but if a PR imposes it, I think they should be respected, whether you know them or not.
That's just not true. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Legally?
embargo, like off-the-record, is a gentleman's agreement. There is no legal recourse if it's broken. Professional repercussion, maybe.
