Flackenhack Award Categories: Part 2

Two weeks to go until The Flackenhacks 2008. . . 

And here are more categories dredged up from beneath the gooseberry bush in the Flackenhacks' back yard. . .  Let us have your nominations, please: you can do so in the form of a comment, anonymously if you prefer. Elsewise, feel free to drop us an email at theflackenhacks [AT] gmail.com.

Rude hack

Charles Arthur. Nuff said. No? There are more..?

Media budget cutter

Whoops! There go my advertisers. When the ads dry up, these fellas unsheath their swords. Who wields the most ferocious weapon in media?

Up its own arse

They've drunk the Kool-Aid, they've eaten the dog food. How come we're the ones who are yacking up? We say, don't ever believe your own PR. They say, "but we're the world's leading…"

Pointless press release

We're just going to sift through PR Newswire for a couple of days. Sure we'll dig something up. But if you've got a particularly good example (anonymity guaranteed) then let us know.

Wank 2.0: User-generated twat

Yes, yes, we know, everything's going digital. Wiki, blog, 2.0, 3.0, social, Facebook, crowdsourcing, viral video, widget, feed, comment. We buy it, OK? But Christ, some people just will not stop banging on about it. Who's the one you just wish would shut up. Just for a bit, eh?
