Don't quote me boy, I ain't said sh*t

That lyric has been stuck in my head for the past few days, but not the N.W.A. version... it's the Dynamite Hack remix (yes, I had to Wikipedia the song to find out who sings that folk/rock version).

The PR Week issue that I am quoted in arrived today and of course I'm nitpicking about the single sentence they used, just as I knew I would. I was very curious to see what they would choose to quote me on, since I was asked about 20 questions during our 5-10 minute phone conversation. I'm fine with the quote they chose, however I'm irked at myself for saying "they're positioning themselves" in reference to our client's plan of brand positioning, rather than "we're positioning them". I feel like I should have taken more credit on behalf of our agency's plan of attack. But in the end, I guess our client was in fact the one who decided how they want to market their new product, so perhaps I'm being too hard on myself.

However they did cite something incorrectly. They said our client was present at the Grammy's, when really they were at the Golden Globes. Hope there are no repercussions on that one, since you know who will be taking the fall.
