![Page 7: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
NASA Using Twitter• Rumors circulating that
NASA found water & life on Mars

![Page 8: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Why we Work with the Media
• The public wants to learn more about health
• The media are there to help sift through that health info
• They need us to provide experts
• We need them to help build the reputation of our doctors
![Page 9: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Some Do’s
• Have a Plan• Learn what the media want• Come up with ways to tell
our story in a way that meets their needs . . .
• It’s about relationships with the media
• Build equity during the “good times” in case something goes wrong– Because something will go
wrong
![Page 10: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
When Something Goes Wrong . . .
• If you mess up, fess up, and then dress up.
![Page 11: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When Something Goes Wrong . . . – Get ahead of a “bad
news” story (Get something out fast)
– Tell the truth – tell the same story internally and externally (Remember, employees watch/read/listen to the news)
– Be humane and empathetic – Show you care
– Explain what’s being done to fix it
– Apologize, if possible – Have a Plan B
![Page 12: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
When Something Goes Wrong. . .
• Message –– Home base – Your core
message. It’s the one thing you want people to remember
• “We will do whatever it takes to keep our patients safe. . .”
– Use facts to support your home base
• “That’s why we have educated all employees about . . .”
– People always come first– You don’t know what you
don’t know . . .

When Something Goes Wrong . . .
• Be positive – Use positive language
• Don’t use jargon/acronyms
• Don’t use marketing language
• Call others – Crisis experts, legal - the more great minds, the better your ability to respond
• Don’t use “no comment”• Always take the high
road

A Changing Landscape
• Deadlines aren’t what they used to be– Someone needs to
be reachable 24 hours a day
• All media have instant abilities to post stories
• Internet playing an increasingly important role
![Page 21: News and Social Media](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56813b5d550346895da456f6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
In Broadcast
• Laptops with wireless cellular cards allow for near-instant posting of story synopsis
• Rush is for first online• Videos live there forever
and can be shared or reused
• Your reputation is on the line in blogs and comments on those stories as well

In Print
• Publication: It’s not just the morning paper anymore
– Online means constant deadlines
– Constant posting – Measuring by hits
instead of papers sold

Words of caution Social media doesn’t run itself. Determine before
you start how much time you can dedicate to social media initiatives. Focus on a couple initiatives at first to get up and running.
Network support. Does your company have the bandwidth & other technical capacity to meet your social media needs?
What’s your comfort level? Social media is about engagement and conversation. Is it ok if you’re not in the driver’s seat?
