For over a century, the Classic Martini has served as a global symbol of sophistication – and it every begins in the tardy 1800s, when the original martini was born. The simple equal-part-sweet-vermouth-and-gin cocktail quickly grew in popularity. However, during the early 1900s, preferences were skewing towards crisper, more spirit-forward cocktails – so the martini adapted. Bartenders started introducing a higher gin to lower sweet vermouth ratio, until the sweet vermouth was substituted altogether with dry vermouth. Known today as the Classic Martini.

I will say that the difference was that when you\’re an Army journalist, as opposed to a civilian correspondent covering the military, you\’re very often either a Public Relations agent or expected to perform that role. I would say that one of the most unexpected benefits of that job was being taught to never try to cover anything up, but rather to get any bad information out right away, so that there would be nothing more to come out later. This was a wonderful lesson to be taught because often the effort to cover up a story becomes a bigger story than the original one. – Clarence Page

Sigmund Freud was tghe founding father of Public Relations, Edward Bernays’ “double uncle”. Sigmund was Edward’s mother’s brother, and he married Edward’s father’s sister (Martha Bernays Freud). That was a tongue twister, but aren’t you glad you learned a new term?
