Great moments in interview history 2!
In which Gene Grabowski blows it. Who knew a stuttering problem could manifest itself so quickly. Gotta love those silly PR people. See 2:24-3:53 of the clip below.
Gene received the "Crisis Communicator of the Year" award in 2007 from PR News and this blurb was written about him in their November 2007 issue:
Prior to Grabowski’s work at Levick, he worked as VP of communications and marketing for the Grocery Manufacturers of America, where he acted as a spokesman for the food industry in Morgan Spurlock’s 2005 documentary Super Size Me. The film blamed obesity largely on fast food corporations.
“My biggest challenge was getting across the idea that individuals and families need to be responsible,” Grabowski says of his role in the film.
Honestly, after watching this clip, "getting across the idea that individuals and families need to be responsible,” seems like the least of Gene's worries. By the time Super Size Me hit theaters, Gene no longer worked for the GMA.
Another Super Size Me sidebar I never noticed until today... homeboy is rocking an Indy shirt.
