Maybe There IS Such a Thing as "Bad Press"

If a press secretary falls in the the forrest, and no one's around to talk about it, does it still get discussed? I guess so.

Kilpatrick's press secretary arrested

Matt Allen, the press secretary for Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, was arrested overnight on domestic abuse charges.

Detroit police spokeswoman Yvette Walker said Allen was taken into custody at 2:30 a.m. at his home on the 2100 block of Seminole in Detroit's Indian Village. She said police responded to a domestic disturbance run at the home.

Allen attended the Detroit Press Club Steak Out media event last night that served free beer and wine at the Marriott Hotel inside the Renaissance Center. Walker said Allen is still in custody and the situation remains under investigation.

She said she was unsure about the extent of injuries to Allen's wife, who is the complainant. Walker wasn't sure who called police.
