Hey, Josh - I think the conference organizers are off base in not acknowledging Forrester in their verbiage, especially since they are referring to the awards, which are a Forrester thing. And to refuse admission to a colleague (I'm assuming an analyst, who in most cases ought to be able to request media access anwyay) is churlish and petty. That said, it IS more promotion for a Forrester branded meme, and anyone who digs in will naturally be pointed back to Forrester. I think you win.
