'By Cokey Falkow. Lee Daniels’ “The Butler” has taken box office honors for two weeks in a row. It’s a thought-provoking film and one of the aspects it brought home is how much a business needs the same thing: a good butler. Just as a good butler stands aside but is always observing and anticipating needs, so a good digital PR agency should be able to unobtrusively tap into conversations that are happening and be able to read the lay of the land in a split second.

I might be wrong, but that’s what I think, and I don’t want to read bloggers like that.
