Online Public Relations Thoughts

The Taliban held a news conference in which its spokesperson said the Islamic group would respect women's rights and freedom of speech.  Now the news has come that the Taliban are hunting down journalists and have killed a relative of one reporter.  The fear is they are the same-old militant group that ruled the country 20 years ago.  Only time will tell as the organization cements its power in Afghanistan and applies its understanding of Islamic law.  It is a reminder once again that actions and not words are at the core of public relations.  It's what you do and not what you say.
