爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
Of course the advertisers whose signs were shown in the magazine immediately threatened the withdrawal of their accounts from The Ladies' Home Journal, and the proposed advertiser at the Grand Canyon, whose business was conspicuous in each number of the magazine, became actively threatening. But Bok contended that the one proposition had absolutely no relation to the other, and that if concerns advertised in the magazine simply on the basis of his editorial policy toward bill-board advertising, it was, to say the least, not a sound basis for advertising. No advertising account was ever actually withdrawn.

白话
被曝光的广告主威胁撤走杂志广告,大峡谷那位广告主更是每期都登广告,扬言报复。博克坚持:编辑立场和广告投放是两回事,若企业只因他反对广告牌就撤广告,这种投放基础本身就不牢靠。结果没有一家真的撤。核心是:守住编辑独立,才能赢得长期信任。做法上,提前划清内容与广告的边界,用原则而非情绪回应威胁,反而让对方不敢轻举妄动。

博克在自传中回忆,广告主因杂志批评广告牌而施压,他坚持编辑独立。
