Marketing Agency CEO Gets a High Klout Score; Puts Out a Press Release [Updated]
The headline reads like an Onion article, but it’s true: Anchor Communications’ CEO got a Klout score of 68 and decided to put out a press release saying “Hey! I’m a social media guru, ’cause I’ve got a great Klout score!”:

Before you know it, he’ll be posting press releases for every little thing:

![](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,<svg height="550px" width="600px" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"/>)
![](data:image/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,<svg height="500px" width="500px" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"/>)
If that’s all it takes to merit a press release, maybe I should put one out too:

Update
The Next Web have discovered the press release and are having their own fun with it.

Oh shit, that's MY Klout score! Call CNN. No seriously, call CNN - I bet they'll report on it.
