I think that Kara also had two important lessons for public administrators: 1. If government agencies don't get involved in social media, false accounts can emerge that use and manipulate the identity of the organization, and 2. Government agencies can counter false information by closely monitoring social media, detecting bogus claims, and providing information to counter the claim.JessiPruehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05981641257780016331noreply@blogger.com
