Grant Thornton ups Budget stakes
TS has been slated for our coverage of the firms’ Budget mentions. Grant Thornton has complained that the firm should have been recorded as ‘first equal’ with KPMG in the Budget mentions the day after the big event, rather than second with 24 mentions to KPMG’s 28. Interestingly, the firm confirmed most of the rest of our numbers, which surprised us slightly as our methodology wasn’t exactly, ‘erm, watertight. GT went on to say that it thinks it pasted its rivals on the weekend coverage.
Separately, a Big Four source wrote to suggest we had been bribed by KPMG to write the story, an accusation we would like to now deny. TS takes all manner of other freebies from firms (keep ‘em coming), but is too incompetent to translate them into positive stories. Perhaps TS just needs more practice.
