Negative or Positive Writing - How Does It Make YOU Feel?
Chris Garrett, who blogs about writing, new media and blogging has an interesting post today called: Writing Lessons from Obama and Hilary
Born in Canada and living in the UK, his take on our campaign is interesting and worthwhile. He makes the statement, “Attacks and Negativity Damage All,” then follows with comments that reflect what people say about negative and attack ads. Most of us will recognize ourselves in at least some of the comments.
From there he moves to discussing what he looks for - someone with solutions, then shows how important writing is in determining just how a political campaign, or a marketing campaign, etc. is. Finally, he suggests we writers / bloggers decide if we want to contribute to solutions or just make nasty.
I think he’s reading the situation exactly right… the thing I don’t understand is why the hate mongers seem to command such a large audience.
Write well and often,
