Hello readers!
Each Monday, one of the LIH staff gets to choose their own Hollywood topic to write and discuss. This week we will be looking into the world of Public Relations and how the game is played between actor, studio, and media. The author of the article The Rules of the Game , Anne Helen Peterson, gives insightful and rather interesting information on “behind the scenes” of the Hollywood machine.
Peterson sets up her article like a play with five different acts:
Act One: Surveying the Field
Act Two: Regrouping
Act Three: Rule Making
Act Four: Expanding the League
Act Five: Upgrading to Digital
There has been such an evolution in the PR industry and it’s history is worth sharing. We hope you will join us for our article/discussion and give us your opinion and thoughts on Hollywood Publicity.

I included the article so visitors could read it. You got into my head and I love you. 🙂 That is all.
I still haven’t read the entire article yet. This is going to be interesting!
When I saw it you-know-where, I knew we would have to discuss this. Glad you liked it!
