Just glancing through my "Intro to PR text book," and ran across the sentence, "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints has video testimonials of thousands of its 6 million members in an attempt to re-brand Mormons as regular people." Cracks me up! the reason I "ran across" this sentence is because I had underlined AND highlighted it when I read that chapter. Regular people? Regular people? And there are actually more than 13 million members - world-wide.
I have to understand that coming from persons who don't actually know any church members, perhaps members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints have been portrayed as still having multiple wives, having horns, and other old stereotypes. Just kind of cracked me up to see that in a text book. Goes to show you, even text book authors make errors and commit misnomers.
