As a result, it brought a case to trial that was too damn weak to win a conviction. ]]> http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/07/06/america-wins-casey-anthony-the-media-and-the-presumption-of-innocence/feed/ 9 http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/02/23/ready-or-not-here-it-comes-goodbye-books/ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/02/23/ready-or-not-here-it-comes-goodbye-books/#comments Wed, 23 Feb 2011 18:00:26 +0000 JZ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/?p=1950 The signs had been there for awhile, but the announcement finally came last week: Borders filed for bankruptcy. The 40-year old retail giant will be closing 200 of its more than 650 stores and laying off of a large portion of its nearly 20,000 person workforce. Did anyone NOT see this coming??]]> http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/02/23/ready-or-not-here-it-comes-goodbye-books/feed/ 8 http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/02/04/brave-or-stupid/ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/02/04/brave-or-stupid/#comments Fri, 04 Feb 2011 21:53:54 +0000 JZ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/?p=1916 CNN’s Anderson Cooper, CBS’s Katie Couric and ABC’s Christiane Amanpour are all in Egypt, covering the violence there live. Over the past few days, each of them has come under physical attack by angry protesters. Thankfully, none of them was seriously injured in the incidents.

So it comes as no surprise that the rest of the world has now recognized it as well. Zimmerman has just been named as the recipient of a 2011 AME Platinum Trophy for last year’s Lane Bryant campaign. Zimmerman was selected as the top scoring entry in all of North America!! ]]> http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/01/24/ame%e2%80%99s-declare-zimmerman-best-in-north-america/feed/ 5 http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/01/11/brandweeks-no-1-story-of-2010-a-game-changer/ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/01/11/brandweeks-no-1-story-of-2010-a-game-changer/#comments Tue, 11 Jan 2011 17:49:06 +0000 JZ http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/?p=1817 Zimmerman Advertising lives and breathes in the retail world of our clients. We relentlessly pursue solutions for them, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We are never satisfied, never content to rest in our successes, but instead are always pushing forward towards the next idea. Sometimes the ideas are small. Sometimes they’re big. And sometimes they’re game changers. Those game changers are the solutions we push for the hardest. They are the ideas that should be recognized and celebrated, both on behalf of our clients and on behalf of Zimmerman as an agency. ]]> http://www.yousleepwhenyoudie.com/2011/01/11/brandweeks-no-1-story-of-2010-a-game-changer/feed/ 4
