NYTimes para decir cosas como estas:
What the hell does “brand” mean? There’s hardly a more overused and — to journalists — uncomfortable word these days, as they are told to build their “personal brands” on what we dub social media.

So bring on the product-development chiefs.
But what is product, really? It’s editorial. It’s making what we give to the public. It’s advocating for and serving the public. It’s building trust and value with the public.
Resalto es la preposición
