RE: [UC] UC Review Graffiti Contest - manipulative PR?
Whitey is obviously Whitey The Chairman of the Board Ford one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history. He allowed an average of only 10.94 base runners per nine innngs and posted 45 career shutouts. Apparantly this title is contested. I'm also a bit puzzled though as to why the UC review would glorify taggers with some page 1 exposure There must be better uses for that space on the front page. kc -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 25, 2007 1:21 PM To: univcity@list.purple.com Subject: Re: [UC] UC Review Graffiti Contest - manipulative PR?

Photos of comely Curio actresses dressed in sacks is probably more appropriate for page one, just below the fold, of the UC Review. And, why no complaints about the UCD removing for free graffitti, when a subsidiary of the Partnership CDC did the same work for a fee? Apparently, even the UC Bourgeoisie doesn't want to give up its entitlements and stoops to creating the perception of need by manipulating the local media. More artists. Fewer vandals.

Re: [UC] UC Review Graffiti Contest
I'd rather see graffiti than 90% of the murals in the city. At least there's no sappy message involved.

Re: [UC] UC Review Graffiti Contest
Shouldn¹t this pump up the volume, so to speak? I have lived through the original ubiquitous graffiti person in Philadelphia: ³Bobby Beck² . Later it was ³Cool Earl², Chewy² and ³Cornbread.² It escalated from there. I do not wish to revisit those days. I make it a habit to wipe out tags as soon as they appear whenever I can.

Cornbread rides again? What you say above makes absolutely no sense at all to me, so I got the latest copy of the UC Rag from the bottom of the parrot's cage, wiped it off, and read the feature. The feature, of course, says exactly what you say it says. Best tag of the week will be rewarded with a front page photo. It also asks the readers to send in locations. No doubt the local artists will be breathlessly awaiting each week's issue, vying with each other to see who gets the coveted prize. Personally, I think if they offered a monetary award, say a Benjamin, or even a pizza, it would be a better incentive. -- Ross Bender http://rossbender.org/clawfoot.html
