‘it’s time for your to rename this site BLOODONMYHANDS.COM’ regarding Paul Tilley
i think it’s time for your to rename this site ‘BLOODONMYHANDS.COM’
That was a comment from The Agency Spy Website
Never have we seen attacks against reporters for reporting a story, in a blogging format no less. Agency Spy reported the death of Advertising Agency Executive Paul Tilley. The level of attacks towards these reporters was intense. To the point where it was almost organized.
Gawker then spreads more disinformation about the case by accusing Agency Spy as the cause of his death.
We found this tidbit of information regarding him:
Tilley’s girlfriend identified him to police, according to authorities.
Full Story
It could of been anything that caused it, the fact that a girlfriend was mentioned but not a wife… we heard rumors that DDB fired him on Friday… but these rumors were not verfied and most likely won’t be due to the sensitive nature of the story.
Reporters accusing reporters of causing the suicide is not right… it’s not ethical.. and it’s hypocritical. Especially from Gawker … a site known to ruin lives with constant slams on individuals. If anything ever happens to someone that Gawker reports on… we will make sure to bring this up… as of course Gawker would be the cause of the incident.
Thanks for the dis-information Gwaker … as a reporter you should know that there is a big difference behind reporting on a story or killing someone.
Agency Spy did not kill someone… all they did was report a story… something you do on a daily basis.
Uh, I think you need to re-read the post. We didn’t accuse Agency Spy of anything. We pointed out that that’s where the controversy was. Yeesh.
Have you no shame Gwaker?
“Did Agency Spy Blog Drive Ad Exec To Suicide?”
That is the title of your post on Gwaker.com … you should be ashamed of yourself.
fyi, many commenters were upset about the tilley story that appeared on agencyspy a week or so ago about his internal memo, not the “RIP” story.
Not once in the last 3 days have I seen Diane Jackson mentioned in this mess. She was supposedly “there” with him.
This whole story is fracked up. I don’t like the pressure put on Agency Spy on this.. not one bit… She didn’t kill him… he killed himself.

[…] people are reporters doing their job, as we stated before, DDB has refused to comment if Paul Tilley was fired on […]
