Hey campers, I’ve got a much longer post brewing about big budget blogger outreach, sponsored posts, the FTC and whether the signal to noise ratio in the blogosphere (and especially on Twitter) is out of whack. I’m also still working on my case studies on AAA and Nintendo Wii.

But for tonight you’ll have to settle for a blogger relations pop quiz.

Question: What’s wrong with this picture?

Situation: True story, sent to me today from a mom blogger friend.

PR firm sends blogger a Father’s Day pitch.

Blogger replies:

Extra Credit Question:

a. JiffyLube Gift certificate

b. Yankees Sod

c. They both suck. What are these people thinking?

Answer in the comments.

And a product review would be done without having the product, how? I just don’t get it.

As for the next question, would possibly depend on the amount of the Jiffy Lube certificate…

That’s funny. I got the JiffyLube pitch in my inbox myself. Uh, no – not for Mother’s Day!
