Re: [MOPO] Big Mac Attack
Bruce, If you own a Mac, and particularly if you do a lot of internet surfing, do a software update (that's in the pulldown menu at the black apple at the top) today. There is a JAVA update in that you need. Change any critical passwords. Mac owners have not, by and large, had to worry about this. Maybe the geniuses at the genius bar will fix this. The problem is that there are the evil geniuses on the other side. MovieArt has four Macs, so I guess we ought to be concerned. Kirby McDaniel MovieArt Original Film Posters P.O.

Re: [MOPO] An auction house to avoid
My goodness, of course it was meant for the entire list. Just look at the time stamps. There's a two-day spread between the original note Geraldine Kudaka sent to Bruce - and when the note was FORWARDED to the entire MoPo group from Geraldine herself. She is obviously a MoPo member. There is no other way an e-mail like that could be posted to the group without first enrolling as a member. Unfairly or not, I interpreted the note as an attack on Heritage, an attempt to force a public or private response from group members - or from Grey himself.

Re: [MOPO] An auction house to avoid
David is certainly correct, but there is still the possibility that she did not mean to post it to the list. Perhaps she thought of something she had forgotten two days earlier and planned to send me that info, but instead accidentally forwarded it to the list. We will only know if and when she chooses to post again.

Re: [MOPO] An auction house to avoid
* That's true. If Geraldine posts again, we'll know more. But even if we presume her e-mail program has a predictive text function - there's a big jump between the B in Bruce and the M in MoPo List. Her note to the group seems - on the surface at least - intentional to me. One other thing I forgot to mention. Having once worked at a Fortune 500 company, I know the following as FACTS. Big corporations are rarely fearful of litigation. That's what their lawyers are for. One strategy is to drain a plaintiff's or a defendant's pool of funds covering legal fees. And once the lawyers are involved, they almost ALWAYS counsel NO response to further public attacks, e.g., putting up a stone wall of silence to preserve their positions in potential litigation. * However, these same corporations are almost ALWAYS WAY MORE FEARFUL of bad press. They can't control the press - and the bad stories ultimately reaches stakeholders/customers whose reactions - can have an adverse effect on a corporation's revenues and industry reputation. Public opinion, not fear of lawsuits, are responsible for the 180s we see in the most prominent case histories, e.g., Bank of America and the Komen Foundation. BTW, this is the way environmental groups, for example, operate. Lacking budgetary resources to fight lawsuits, they are very creative in their efforts to garner media attention, feeding into the conflict-driven agendas of newsrooms. When I was a reporter, I was always told to test the demonstrators by seeing if they marched and shouted ONLY when the media was present. If they stopped when the cameras left, it was a stunt. I was told to report the demonstration - but to report it accurately as being staged for media consumption. PETA operates on a similar principle, but its over-the-top actions, while GUARANTEEING coverage, results in an extremely divided view of that group's reputation. Heritage is a large company that has been down the road of adverse (and positive) press before. The risk is losing control of a dispute whereby third parties (the media) - can sway public opinion in an adverse way that disrupts operations. * When I took on FedEx and Sotheby's during the 1990s, it was the controlled, managed use of potentially adverse press relations that resulted in resolving my disputes with them. The lawyers came out with their knives intending to bleed my bank accounts dry. But knowing how to spin David vs. Goliath stories in a way that reflects a trend of errors affecting others like me - spreads the number of potential victims out so that my woes served as a poster child or a proxy - or a tip of the iceberg illustration - of greater problems impacting consumers. This forces the responsibility out of the hands of lawyers and goes all the way up the executive ladder. For most big companies facing potentially bad press, it isn't worth battling in public if small change is involved. If they're smart, they settle quietly and the problem goes away quickly. But once it hits the press, it's impossible to reel everything back in and it becomes a nightmare. I've made my living working both sides of the fence and it's an ugly business. I am so glad that my experience in the news media has equipped me well enough to battle - or to re-direct reporters when my clients are attacked, whether they are corporations or a little guy trying to influence public opinion. In sum, I'm not Heritage, but if I was handling its P.R., I would do everything in my power to make this problem go away - or to keep it confined within the borders of a small group. It's not worth fighting a volatile situation that can be solved - that risks turning into an issue that becomes everybody's problem, including present and prospective consumers who would not otherwise care absent third party involvement. -d.
