Something controversial or provocative about this subject  Public Relations became controversial when multi level marketers and telemarketers used the term to mean relating to the public as sales people and hucksters. They took it our of the hallowed halls of journalism and communications and demeaned it. A true public relations person is one who is skilled, trained and dedicated to his craft and his client.
