Be Careful What Influencers You Follow I Made That Mistake!
I am writing about Body Language, so for that reason i follow a lot of experts in Body Language Field. I do training courses, read books and articles, and i participate in forums of my topic. I want to become really good in this subject!
So two days ago I wrote an article about UK Prime Minister's Body Language in the Media before Brexit. Thank God i did not analyse the body language, but it was more about how media portrays Mr.Cameron. Meaning the media can make you look great or weak. And i found an article of an american body language expert Dr. Jack Brown. I thought he is a good guy, had lots of content and Photo Analysis on his website. I also checked to see what amount of traffic he gets a day, and it was pretty significant number.
Today i had a discussion about the same topic in my body language forums, and I used Dr. Jack Brown's article as an example. And one of the forum members did a research on the actual photos that the so called 'body language expert' analysed, claiming this is how Mr. Cameron looks just days before the Brexit Campaign. So what do you think?
One of the analysed photos where apparently Mr. Cameron is trying 'to surpress emotions', looks ashamed and sad was taken from another article published 9 months ago, where UK Prime Minister was accused of 'doing something stupid in college (it involved his genitals and and a pig's head)'. Well, everyone would display that kind of face in case of those type of accusations, but those FACIAL EXPRESSIONS had nothing to do with the Brexit Campaign that the Inluencer Dr. Jack Brown was doing analysis for!
And another Photo was used in another article over a year ago, again nothing to do with the Brexit campaign! So Mr. Jack Brown is acting very unethical, and really hurting his own brand. I am disappointed how far would some people go to get famous. He has articles on B.Sanders, and D. Trump and other celebrities, but don't believe this guy he is really no expert. Plus his comments are disabled, i wonder WHY?..:)
The Moral of the Story is that i had to edit my blog today. I didn't delete it or anything, in the end it made a good case on how far would media go to hurt your brand and image. And ALWAYS ALWAYS verify the info you get, no matter who gives it to you!

Congratulations on the learning experience Joana. Too many folks blow their trumpets at Trump and the notes come out flat!
I live in Europe and to me US election time is like 'a FREE comedy festival for 2 years' to watch, as they just 'bash out dirt left right and center at each other', and the journalists are the worst....:)
And I am a women, and I am an immigrant and I still like Trump...:)
It is like a comedy festival Joana. We have to live with it though lol. Great attitude!
