Operation Gore Watch

The San Antonio Express-News reported several days ago that Al Gore is barring the media from covering his keynote address at the American Institute of Architects’ convention on Saturday.

It’s fairly safe to assume that Gore will be discussing eco-friendly, or green, architecture.

In a column yesterday on MySA.com, run in part by the Express-News, Gore is shooting himself in the foot. Jaime Castillo writes:

Gore’s decision to lock out the media, however, has robbed the AIA of a monumental public relations opportunity.

Fresh off writing the best-selling book “An Inconvenient Truth” and starring in the Oscar-winning documentary of the same name, Gore was going to be AIA’s version of a Super Bowl halftime show.

At least he’s still showing up to this speech, because he canceled a speech next week at McCormick Place in Chicago.

Hmm.
