[edit] POV

Large parts of this look like a POV hatchet job against this firm. The allegations should be sourced. Use of the word propaganda is highly charged and statements like Since the 1930s, public relations and propaganda have merged into a profitable business reek of POV. Please do not remove templates until this is resolved. --JJay 14:32, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

The controversies section still reads very POV. Any way to add citations to this section? Pnkrockr 15:52, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WARNING

Constructive criticism only, is welcomed. If this page is not to your liking then, make suggestions on how it should be done. The commentary does nothing for the people who created this page, so unless you can help, your "POV" will be totally ignored. Thanks, have a great life. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.217.90.211 (talk • contribs) 14:33, 14 November 2005.

[edit] UPDATED

It turns out that weeks before the Congressional Human Rights Caucus took place the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspie, told Saddam Hussein that the United States would have no objections to Iraq invading Kuwait. It wasn't until Hill & Knowlton's orchistrated PR campaign that Americans accepted the Gulf War. If only someone could find a quote or cite of the two speaking together. This seems important, but isn't large enough for its own page. -Drunkentune 18:41, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Criminal charges?

Does anybody know what happened as a result of Hill & Knowlton and the Kuwaiti ambassador's daughter lying to congress? Isn't that a felony? Was Hill & Knowlton charged, shut down, and all employees thrown behind bars? Any one with any info as to what happened as a result, please add this much relevant info to the article. If they got away scot-free with committing a felony this should be there too. Article is not supposed to be a promotion piece of Hill & Knowlton or whatever the topic of articles.
