The Anonymous Widower

If You Want Good Publicity, Black Death Is A Surprisingly Good Idea

I have a Google News alert for Crossrail and today, it flagged up nine stories on the web.

Eight of these were about the story I reported on yesterday, about the finding of a cemetery for plague victims.

Usually, companies try to disassociate themselves from death and other dark stories.

If you’re wondering the other story, was about Crossrail driving up residential property prices.  But then rising property prices are a good news story in many peoples’ minds.

  1. The Plague story should have had: BRING OUT YOUR DEAD! as a headline.
