	Phil's Blogservations Wednesday, June 01, 2005 Posted by philgomes 10:15 AM 49ers' PR Blunder 49ers' PR Blunder Looks like the San Francisco 49ers are in hot water because their up-until-very-recently-employed PR Director decided to make a training video that apparently goes out of its way to insult, well, everyone. Matier and Ross at the Chronicle have the story. It was meant to be funny -- but no one is laughing now in the San Francisco 49ers' front office over an in-house training film that featured off-color racial jokes, lesbian porn, a spoof of gay marriage and a trio of buxom, topless blondes frolicking with team public relations director Kirk Reynolds. I really can't believe what I'm reading. In what twisted parallel universe would such a training film have been a good idea? It's only a matter of time before this video makes its way online. UPDATE: The Chron split it up into eight parts and put it here. People are going to be talking about this for some time.
