Not an answer, but a question: are you jumping to comms strategy or brand? Curious how you’re moving from media to strat.

I'll tell you what it is: referencing!

You have to do so much of it, and it's so annoying. You have to cite your sources, but there are so many different formats for citations!

And even then, they might not be sure whether it should be an in-text citation or a footnote…
