    “Hand-to-hand combat” apparently referred to persuading advertisers in person rather than from behind a desk, a person with knowledge of the matter told the newspaper.

      The part I thought was interesting was the stat on advertising being down 59% I hadnt seen that stat before. less so the hand to hand combat.
