Thank you so much for writing this. It is brave of you to share, and was exactly what I needed to read right now. There are many parallels to reporting on the beer industry... I actually have a story publishing soon that I'm rather worried about re: someone in the "good ol boys" network who isn't going to be happy. It helped to hear that I'm not alone even though I'm sorry to hear that you have been dealing with this. Solidarity.

Well said. As someone eyeing the PR to journo route so much of this colors my fears and adds shoulder devils.
