CIA’S FAVORITE PR FIRM, RENDON GROUP, ROCKS THE DNC

The CIA’s favorite PR firm, “the Rendon Group is playing a major
behind-the-scenes role at the Democratic National Convention in
Boston, arranging first-time/real-time video broadcasts each
morning to each of the 56 caucuses, serving as the event’s project
manager, and coordinating 20 convention-related events, Rick
Rendon, co-founder of the firm, told O’Dwyer’s. Rendon hired
Polycom Video Systems to set up secure servers in 22 hotels so
leading Democrats can address each caucus at their 8 a.m. breakfast
for a ‘virtual convention.’ … Rendon said the Boston convention
will mark the first time that each delegation will be connected in
real-time. ‘I remember how hard it was to speak to the different
delegations when I worked for Jimmy Carter,’ said Rendon. TRG has
or will run 20 convention events, ranging from an educational
reception for young female Democrats featuring former Texas
Governor Ann Richards to the ‘Rock the Vote’ concert. An Associated
Press July 25 photo featured TRG staffer Jim King giving John
Kerry’s daughters Vanessa and Alexandra a tour of the FleetCenter.
King is one of TRG’s ‘lean and mean’ convention team, said Rendon.
‘It’s been crazy,’ he added.”
