Overbearing?
OPINION: Dust ups between rural media and PR types aren't unheard of but also aren't common, given part of the job description of PR is to grease the wheels and ensure clients get good media coverage.
Not known for mincing her words when it comes to tackling bureaucrats or industry leaders that she disagrees with, it appears the firebrand Smith is also not one to pussyfoot around when advertising her and husband Blair’s Newhaven perendale stud.
A mate of yours truly pointed out a recent advert run by Newhaven promoting their stud. Its headline read: “Not a socialist sheep in sight.”
The ad went on to say, “At Newhaven we don’t breed any left-wing sheep – those that take up your time, your money and still wait at the gate for a handout.”
Talk about nailing your colours to your mast!
Your old mate has to tip his hat to the Smiths; at least those on the outlook for perendale sheep will not die wondering what they are in for.
