​Just read this piece from Creative Moment - and wow, it nails something big:

Reddit isn’t just where chaos lives. It’s where culture lives.

For years, PR teams treated it like a crisis tracker. But here’s the truth - Reddit has quietly become the most honest focus group on the internet.

No filters or brand polish. Just people saying what they actually think.

And here’s the wild bit - Reddit is now feeding data into AI models like ChatGPT and Gemini. So when someone asks, “Is this brand any good?” … the answer literally comes from Reddit.

As a recruiter, I’m seeing more agencies look for talent who can:

  • Listen to culture, not chase it

  • Spot insights before they trend

  • Blend creativity, data and instinct

If you’re not using Reddit as your creative radar - you’re missing the good stuff.

Would love to know - has anyone here actually used Reddit for campaign insight or PR strategy?
