Should social media be a part of your crisis communications plan and strategy?

By Gerard Braud –

It is time for you to voice your opinion on crisis communications plans and strategy. Each week we seek your best PR practices on the BraudCast. Your discussion question is, “Should social media be a part of your crisis communications strategy?” Social media has changed the way that media relations and public relations professionals must communicate to effectively manage a crisis. That is why I am asking you to contribute by sharing your best advice with your colleagues.
