If you're a police department in America today and have a high-profile incident that's making national news, PLEASE use your Twitter account to share your side of the story. If you aren't sharing it on a platform where news is made and newsmakers go, you're missing your chance.

Silence from the US Capitol Police.
•Last news release dated 10/20
•No social media
•No news conference
Police chiefs across the US have worked to share info with their communities, to try and build trust.

When you bring multiple agencies together for an important news conference about public safety, lead with the latest news. What’s happening NOW?

Police PIOs, this is for you.
You likely wake up to your dept's social media.
It's the last thing you read at night.
Nights/holidays/weekends = work hours.
People tell you no. A lot.
You take work calls at your kids' events.
Reporters wake you up.
Chiefs, too.
You MATTER.

Police chiefs:
Using Twitter to announce a news conference is great. The next step though is to use Twitter to share what’s said at that news conf. Since not everyone sees your news conf, tweet your news. If you don’t, we need to go to the media to see what you said.

Gov’t leaders & communicators:
If you use social media to message about a critical issue such as power outages or water issues (and you should) but then disappear on social, people will be angry.
Even if the update isn’t ideal, sharing beats silence.
