If someone writes something negative on your corporate Facebook page, should you delete it?

This week, crisis communications expert Gerard Braud polls social media to ask, “If someone writes something negative on your corporate Facebook page, should you delete it?” We want to hear your expert public relations tips this week!

From disgruntled customers to even disgruntled employees, your corporate Facebook page is a very public platform for voicing opinions. Social media managers and corporate communications professionals must be trained on how to deal with negative feedback or negative comments.
