Reactions to story from Crisisblogger

This July 17 New York Times article is a blistering attack on the reputation of one of the world’s most respected and revered non-profit organizations–the Red Cross. Having met some of the key communication leaders of this organization, I was eager to observe them effectively responding to the very serious allegations in this article. There were very few responses contained within the article. This is surprising since the problems with the blood supply are not new with FDA criticism dating back to 1993 according to the article. Almost no one from the organization was quoted.
