San Francisco: For the Birds (Vultures, to Be Exact)

I suggest that Leagas Delaney’s Wayne Buder, who wrote that gossip is costing the San Francisco ad industry its integrity [Letters, Feb. 18], get used to the gossipy vultures. They’re the price of business in San Francisco, largely because there is no business in San Francisco.

As a 27-year veteran of advertising in the Bay Area, I’ve watched major agencies come and go. Precious few have succeeded. San Francisco was, and still is, a small town with few indigenous accounts, (the high-tech sector notwithstanding).
