I'm not so sure that the publicity Chuck gets from some maniacal rant
is all harmful. I think most people who really know what's going on,
understand the rift and take it for what it's worth. As for those who
don't know beans about Zoom or Chuck, I really think that the press,
even though negative possibly helps Chuck because it keeps his
company's name in circulation.


Frankly Bill if I had my druthers I would rather that 9 years ago zoom

just
would have left me alone.I'm capable of generating my own press that isn't
harmful and have done enough legitimate things in this business to earn

press
space. I've accomplished things that are verifiable and not embellished,

unlike
most of zooms record.
Negative publicity might work for politicians and movie stars but it don't

work
for guys like me I don't like it and it cost me plenty.But he dealt the

cards
and I'm stuck with it.


Yes, I know this is a strange thing to say to some of you, but I have
friends who feel that any press, negative press included can be a
benefit.


Maybe they're movie stars or politicians, they can have it.


I'm not trying to open a debate over this, I'm just speculating a bit,
and I'm not sure what the real outcome is.


I think the real outcome will come when zoom finally gets 2 nickles to rub
together and has something of value ,then I'll probably sue him for all

this
crap and take it away . But at the rate he's going it will be a long

time.That
may be the only way it will stop. Until then every time he lies or twists

the
truth he will be exposed for doing it.


Usually defamation (libel, slander) lawsuits have short statutes of
limitations, meaning you have to file your lawsuit shortly after the
defamation is published.

On a couple of other issues here, I don't agree with the proposition that
the only thing worse than bad publicity is no publicity at all. That is a
weasel statement made by a weasel who doesn't understand the agony or damage
caused by defamation, or that good name and reputation are the immediate
jewels of one's soul.

It is true too that most people in the homebuilder community know that
Campbell is a rather nasty little narcissist, but the young and
impressionable who come along fresh and naive must constantly be reminded
that while he may be articulate, he's also got big credibility problems.

On the other hand if he exposes REAL crooks, which sometimes he HAS done, he
contributes a service. So he has a history of blasting advertisers who
decline to renew their ads. You take him and his shills with a grain of
salz.
