But I think it’s completely alright because some people need the protection of PR. Because they are SO big , you know they breathe and its news. So I think for that purpose even the smallest thing you’ll say become a news item, so for those purposes some people do require PR, to just keep them safe and I think that’s totally valid .

She continued, “Other people use PR as a means to put their craft out there and to be seen because in a world where everyone’s in a shouting match with each other to be seen, I think that is also valid. Some people don’t, some people hope for the best, some will see it and I think none of it is wrong and none of it is worth judging, I think to each their own and everyone can do what they want and yeah that’s my opinion.”

Saba continued, “And we don’t know where people are coming from you know, we don’t know what hardships they’ve gone through to get to where they are and to be seen its, that much more of a fight in a sea of talented people, so we can’t really judge people for wanting PR or wanting to push their own, you know you set up a business and you have to advertise it and if you don’t advertise it people should do that and I want to learn how to do that, I haven’t yet. I don’t yet have PR but maybe someday I will.”
