DCI is in Indy (isn't that convenient). & Indy Star broke the Larry Nasser story. Their reporters understand the issues involved. it went over the AP wire. Papers from the New York Times to the Harrisburg Patriot News had access to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes YEAs ability to communicate sucks but there is more to the problem than that. See rmm155s post above for explanation. To me PR is dealing with the world outside of your group. YEA also needs to do a lot of work internally I agree that they need a lot of internal work. But...they need professionals who are experienced in dealing with the public to be the "public face" for communication. The first YEA/BOD statement made that obvious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimF-LowBari Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 1 hour ago, Jeff Ream said: well and the reporter is going to have to do some vetting and verified. Sara Ganim did the Penn State story, and I know the Joe faithful bashed her, but she did some pretty good investigative work on fleshing things out that opened doors for the AG's office to dig deeper. Scarey part is how far things would NOT have gone if she hadn’t kept digging. Would have continued to be the “someone told me that someone told them” type stories and that’s all. Was actually told one of these by a Lancer bari who was an ex cop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimF-LowBari Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 (edited) So the Indy report says DCI has reporting procedures and will make sure corps will have them too. Good as that piece has not been discussed in the statements some corps have made. Can’t fight this if people don’t know how to report it. Especially if they don’t trust who they would report it to Edited April 10, 2018 by JimF-LowBari 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
