I'm not a publicity hound, I hope. — © Raghuram Rajan
I'm not a publicity hound, I hope.
Some people call me a publicity hound.
I'm not a publicity hound. I don't care about being on the cover of 'GQ' or 'Vanity Fair.'
Publicity is the life of this culture - in so far as without publicity capitalism could not survive - and at the same time publicity is its dream.
I do need publicity but not for what I do for good. I need publicity for my book. I need publicity for my fights. I need publicity for my movie but not for helping people. Then it is no longer sincere.
I know actors who court personal publicity because they believe no publicity is bad publicity.
Publicity, publicity, publicity is the greatest moral factor and force in our public life.
And I don't know if Batty's gotten over it yet,' said Skye. Mr. Penderwick looked out the window to where Batty was playing vampires with Hound. Hound was on his back, trying to wiggle out of the black towel Batty had tied around his neck. Batty was leaping over Hound's water bowl, shrieking, 'Blood, blood!' 'She looks all right,' he said.
A hound it was, an enormous coal-black hound, but not such a hound as mortal eyes have ever seen. Fire burst from its open mouth, its eyes glowed with a smouldering glare, its muzzle and hackles and dewlap were outlined in flickering flame. Never in the delirious dream of a disordered brain could anything more savage, more appalling, more hellish be conceived than that dark form and savage face which broke upon us out of the wall of fog.
The emerging notion of the Eighties was that publicity was a currency. The old view was that if you had a currency - your talent or your product - publicity might draw attention to it. The new view was that publicity in itself, highlighting you, bestowed value.
A different set of incentives from rising in an economic establishment where the rewards system, again, the reinforcement, comes from being a truffle hound. That's what Jacob Viner, the great economist called it: the truffle hound - an animal so bred and trained for one narrow purpose that he wasn't much good at anything else, and that is the reward system in a lot of academic departments.
Without publicity, no good is permanent; under the auspices of publicity, no evil can continue.
That's a huge subject - a writer refusing to do publicity but writing about publicity.
Now, if there was one woman in the world who didn't need publicity, who always had too much publicity, it was me.
????Short of committing murder, negative publicity sells more seats than positive publicity.
Writers want publicity all the time, and they are always nagging their agents and publishers to give them more publicity, but, when you get it, it's kind of soul-destroying.
To me, any publicity is good publicity.
