Pinnacle Marketing WILL Survive the Little Mayor

Bingo!

We just got off the phone with Pinnacle Marketing's Head Honcho, Larry Hansen.

We had a fine conversation!

He takes the position that he considers his "polling data" to be "private and confidential," which is quite alright by us. It's the First Amendment Right of every special interest group, the Mind-Numbed Zombie Gondola at Any Cost Cult included, to collect data any way they want, and propagandize to their hearts' content -- so long as all the "collected" data remains "internal."

What would be unethical, of course, would be to have anyone publish a rigged/privately designed marketing push-poll in the guise of being a legitimate public opinion survey.

Mr. Hansen agrees totally on this, we think.

We believe Mr. Hansen recognizes the above point, although he frankly admits: "I'm no mathematician."

He makes no pretension to being a "scientific pollster," either.

Mr. Hansen assures us that all details of this so-called "phone poll," which were compiled entirely for a private analysis, will be made publicly available, in the event this poll is ever published as a purported public opinion survey:

Here are the things Mr. Hansen graciously agreed to provide, in the event his company's private "poll results" are ever publicly disseminated, and in the event his "clients" violate the terms of their express or implied agreement with Pinnacle Marketing, and release any portion of this "internal survey" publicly.

*Complete Poll Methodology
*Exact Text of the "Polling questionnaire."
*Identities of his so-far un-divulged clients.

We applaud Mr. Hansen and give him a hat-tip for his honesty and integrity.

And we know we can trust him at his word. This is Utah, afterall, where most everything still works on promises, "a handshake" and a secret "highsign." It's re-assuring to be such a righteous State, innit?

Not only that: Ogden's Own Pinnacle Marketing will long survive the "Blessed Matt Godfrey" era -- hopefully -- we predict.

Whew!
