Below is the eagerly anticipated third edition of the Bateman Buzz Meter, our ranking of recent newsworthy events based on PR and Social Media effectiveness. Our goal is to publish a new Buzz Meter every six weeks; however, the holidays, new business pursuits and 2010 client planning meetings conspired against us this time. Apologies to all our readers desparate for their Bateman Buzz Meter fix. As always, please comment on any current news headlines or PR stunts you think are worthy of the Buzz Meter.
