A tough job: PR firm representing KBR and Blackwater attempts to counteract avalanche of bad press
The machine is grinding into gear; KBR can't stand too much more truth, so they're hiring a PR company to spin their crap rep into gold.
His client is a trade group blandly called the Professional Services Council. Its membership list is anything but innocuous, however; it includes many of the companies - Blackwater USA, Boeing, DynCorp International and KBR - that have been at the center of the front-page controversies.
Expect lots of pictures on FOX News and CNN of KBR thugs and Blackwater mercenaries holding smiling Iraqi kids. Please to be forgetting all the stories of murder, rape, etc. Thank you.
