My parody account is the 2020 Astros Shame Tour dedicated to shame the team’s cheating scandal. As an org, good judgement would be to recognize that it is not posing an inherent threat to the team. Interfering would further enrage MLB fans. @ChandrikaCC#Response#COMM3580
I would take advantage of usability testing. With tornado preparedness, readability & accessibility is really important — the storm acts quickly. Using this data would allow me to evaluate if my messaging makes sense & is accessible to all people. @ChandrikaCC#Crisis10#COMM3580
Greta Thunberg does a great job serving as a young spokesperson advocating for the climate. She #captivates an audience with her #passion and leads without fear, setting the example of how to grow a global platform. @ChandrikaCC#CMT#COMM3580
Greta Thunberg headlined an afternoon of speeches from youth activists outside the United Nations climate summit.
Thunberg said #COP26 is a ��failure,” “exclusionary” and “a global north green wash festival.” https://t.co/PACSqaHzHc
This PSA encourages you to take the ‘No Kid Hungry’ Pledge to end childhood hunger in the US. The intended audience is all viewers of this PSA (published on Food Network), as Jeff Bridges says we can all do our part. @ChandrikaCC#PSA#COMM3580

Burger King tweeted this on International Women’s Day. Though intended to promote scholarships they’d offer to women, it was in bad taste. I’d respond by explaining that motivation for tweeting, expressing mortification, & taking responsibility.

The social media message I chose was when YouTuber James Charles tried to apologize after it surfaced he had groomed underage boys. His intended audience is the public — more specifically his viewers (his fan base). https://t.co/0zz5JyBnl8

I find Benoit’s theories to be strong — they highlight five key image restoration strategies in depth. I especially find this useful as someone who wants to go into PR. These strategies show how communication shapes the way an org. is perceived.

This tweet highlights the physical and emotional trauma from those who worked on Capitol Hill during the Jan. 6 Insurrection. The reading emphasizes how uncertainty in the midst a crisis can prompt immense anxiety and challenges. @ChandrikaCC#Crisis4#COMM3580
"It's always going to haunt me." Before Jan. 6, the Capitol seemed almost impenetrable — a symbol of a secure democracy. For many, it's now tinged with trauma, anger and sadness.
We spoke to people who were there during the riot. Here's what they said. https://t.co/3wqyn47f5a
This fear appeal illustrates what could happen if you don’t wear a seatbelt. It is effective because thinking about the message causes a person to upgrade their estimates of the threat, just as the reading describes. @ChandrikaCC#Crisis3#COMM3580
This Instagram graphic effectively communicates a warning about what could happen if Roe v. Wade is overturned. It states that 25 million people could lose access to safe abortion in their state - highlighting the impact.

I have been hired by the St. Louis Cardinals! I am picking Stakeholder Relations because there are a variety of attentive stakeholders in sports media: fans, sponsors, athletes, a team’s city, etc. Sports media loves technical details! @ChandrikaCC#Crisis1#COMM3580
This is a good fear appeal ad because it shows how quickly a text while driving can impact so many lives. It freaked me out a little because sometimes I will just send “a quick text.” https://t.co/wC0bTPiAHl #T10@Gekim12
A show I watch that cultivates an unrealistic perception of reality is The Bachelor. Instead of developing a deep emotional connection, contestants are encouraged to view the experience as a game that is to be won or lost. #T8@Gekim12
A good collaboration I was a part of was planning formal for one of my org’s last year. I delegated a formal planning committee team and work was split amongst us - painting the banner, advertising, organization, etc. We had a great turnout & a good time! #T7@Gekim12
One attitude I believe could be changed through active perspective taking is when people are rude to fast food workers. They are usually just teenagers trying to earn a salary, and it’s important to remember that they’re trying their best. @Gekim12#T6
A difficult conversation I had occurred last June with my mom. When the Blues won the Stanley Cup, I had planned on going to the downtown celebration. When I woke up with a 104 fever, I was persistent on going, but my mom did not allow me to go. #T5@Gekim12
A time I reciprocated someone else’s communication was when my roommate asked us if we wanted to watch the entire Twilight series in one sitting. We said yes, obviously. Jacob Black deserved better. #T4@Gekim12
One example of when my expectations were violated by someone else’s communication was after one of my softball games. Both of my parents thought the other person had taken me home, but they left me at the field! @Gekim12#T3
One folk theory I use is when I’m running. Every time time I run, I have to listen to “Another One Bites the Dust” by Queen or else I won’t have a good running pace! #T2@Gekim12
