Does this qualify for the "I don't care what you say about me as long as you spell my name right" media strategy?

Unfortunately this will ensure that these kinds of attack will continue and maybe even intensify.

The coverage was maybe 10 seconds or less, very tiny and literally just a blip. I was barely able to get my phone out and take a picture of the headline on the screen before it went away. However, if you want to read more about it Reuters has the story http://www.reuters.com/article/us-calif ... SKCN0VR085
