I was quoted recently in a story on President Obama’s March 19th historic appearance on The Tonight Show (the story was written by my friend, Sarah Prial, a reporter for Sacred Heart University’s Spectrum):

“Mike Maney, a veteran public relations executive at Zer0 to 5ive Communications out of Philadelphia, shared his views from a public relations standpoint.

‘There are some [political] camps who believe Obama’s appearance lessened the office of the President, that it should be above entertainment,’ said Maney. ‘There are other camps who believe that his appearance represents a President who is trying every channel he can to communicate to the American people.'”
