Trust barometer•Social media is still emerging, but are still less trusted than any other information source

* Blogs: Trusted by 26% of 25-34 and 19% of 35-64-year-olds * Social networks: 25% and 20% * Video sharing sites: 25% and 19%

•Wikipedia is the second most credible source for young Americans (behind business magazines)

•The growing influence of social media is reflected in the names the report gives to the different segments of “elites.” Despite the low trust still currently shown in social media tools, they label the largest segment “social networkers”

•The lowest trust group is corporate or product advertising

For journalists – and others

A springboard into the ”cloud”

The role of the future press officer is as much to host the conversation as it is to

spin it

Additional advantages – SEO, direct dialog, issues

management, crisis management

All of the websites offer direct e-mail updates Almost all offer newsletters- though few on their press site

Approx 2/3 offer at least one RSS feed Approx 2/3 feature online video – without sharing

2 of the 20 (Rockwool and Novozymes) have a blog 2 (Danisco, Jyskebank) use podcasts

1 offers the ability to ”share” directly to the social media 1 offers a widget None use Wikis

…None offer links to their own Social media channels
