Alex Barr was named in the Glasgow Top 100 Most Powerful People in January 2005. ^Times' (article not available online) "WITH the exception of Kirsty Wark, most... people ..cultivate a low public profile - but that doesn't stop them having a major influence on how we see the world. If you read newspapers, watch TV and listen to the radio, they've shaped the news of the day". This quote taken from the same Evening Times article is an apt summary of the importance of the unseen hand of PR in shaping both the content and editorial slant of public news and information.
