Tech PR War Stories # 3 is about loose lips, death threats and the future of print

This week in Tech PR War Stories, David Strom and I talk about the Fred Vogelstein briefing memo and his Wired article. David says Google has become the new reputation management tool. IDG is transforming itself into an online company with the announcement that Infoworld will become a Web-only property. Paul asks whether print even matters in this market any more. And finally, we discuss the lessons learned from threats on Kathy Sierra’s life and how Tim O’Reilly brokered a rapproachment with Chris Locke.

RE: Kathy Sierra and death threats

It bothers me that the death threats as "cyberbullying."

I suppose my concern might be categorized as rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, but stick with me.

Cyberbullying is a serious issue --no doubt about it.

Death threats seem a step above bullying.

Shouldn't there be a different word for this kind of ultra-serious kind of adult misuse of technology?

What's the legal term for threatening someone's life offline?
