PondelWilkinson in Los Angeles Business Journal

PondelWilkinson was recently featured in a Los Angeles Business Journal article on public companies engaging in social media and the implications for disclosure.  View the article in its entirety.  Following are takeaways:

• Consider setting up a social media policy that permits official corporate communication to be conveyed through specified social media accounts, not personal accounts;
• Ensure that social media communications are consistent with other public statements;
• Determine whether disclaimers are necessary, such as forward-looking statements;
• Identify someone who will monitor social media communications;
• When you implement a social media policy, stick with it.
