Before the day is over, Marion j|||BP?|jlB
Brown will read at least four B|lllli|||p
newspapers, place and receive
about 100 telephone calls, answer
30 letters and discuss with many
people the political affairs of South
Carolina.
Brown is Gov. Richard Riley's
director of communications, or I V
more simply, press secretary.
The 1970 USC journalism .
graduate was selected for Riley's Bpfflfcpp
staff about 18 months ago and 1
enjoys his demanding role as the
governor's spokesman.
"It is an unusual role because it I jIHB
requires one individual to serve I
two different masters. I see myself
as first working for and serving /JS
Gov. Riley. On the other hand, I see MgfiraHB
a second master that I serve in the
South Carolina press," Brown said. \

Brown said he feels there is no |
difference between his role as i
press secretary and his previous J
job as a newspaper reporter and ii
editor. Brown considers himself an |
objective journalist and not a
public relations figure. j pj*j

Brown became acquainted with jj r 1
Riley in the early 1970s when he
(Brown) was a newspaper reporter 73
and Riley was a state senator. i

They know he (Riley) J '

BOTH BROWN and Riley were /4
working for the establishment of /fa

asked Riley for information. Over
the years their relationship grew. [ Hi

an individual from Greenville.
Brown said he felt he had an ad- . _
vantage over his competitor A (?<

Brown said the ethical standards j
of Gov. Riley make his job easier. I
"I don't have to defend him and , 1
argue with press people that he is a IDinnC
