Lame PR

I see Lindsay Lohan has been admitted to treatment again… is anyone with a pulse actually interested?  It really underlines the point that Ms Lohan’s publicist must really be clutching at straws if this is the best they can come up with.  If we go back to the great Hollywood publicists, we could learn some tricks. 

loretta-young-280.jpgHoward Strickland was one such publicist and a day in his life would include the following:  Hustling off Loretta Young to Europe who was pregnant with Clark Gable’s child, to hide her bump and take the heat of the press. 

At the same covering up Thelma Todd’s murder as well as getting the negatives of a Joan Crawford lesbian porn film back.  Then again, he was given $100,000 by the studio which is equivalent of $2,000,000 today. 

It makes Lindsay Lohan’s publicist look pretty lame by comparison.
