I am not 100 percent sure when I first came across Jennifer Mattern's blog Naked PR, but I know that it immediately caught my attention.

Let's just say that she says things in ways that I wouldn't.  She is very direct and you immediately know where you stand with her.

Some recent titles on her blog:

  • Do You Really Know a Rat's Ass About PR?
  • The ‘Why Memes Show I’m Better Than You’ Blog Meme
  • My Beef With Twitter

She also says things like:

See what’s been buzzing in the PR blog party recently. You’ll find some interesting Public Relations reads. Then again, you’ll also find some total crap. Judge for yourself.

I don't always agree with her, but I like that she says what she thinks, and in doing so, she helps to reframe the discussion a bit.

There are others who have tried to be this “voice of dissent,” but Jennifer does it considerably better than any other that I know of in the public relations blogging world.  Though I must admit, Bill Sledzik comes a close second.

All the rest are just imitators, Jennifer is the real deal.
