"Advocacy campaigns have relied heavily on email for more than two decades, but a recent survey shows that a handful of well-conceived comments on social media aimed towards Congress may be just as effective as thousands of emails."
E-Democracy learned years ago - http://e-democracy.org/if - that two-way public communication among constituents has far more public agenda-setting power than bulk private email IF the elected official or their staff are paying attention to the public discourse online. In my view, it less the medium of email but where it is being sent with no public engagement possibly. - Steve From: "'McNutt, John G' mcnut...@udel.edu [electronicadvocacy]" < electronicadvoc...@yahoogroups.com> Date: Jun 27, 2017 10:41 AM Subject: [electronicadvocacy] A Few Comments on Social Media Get Congress' Attention | Connectivity To: "research_advoc...@yahoogroups.com" <research_advoc...@yahoogroups.com>, "EA (electronicadvoc...@yahoogroups.com)" < electronicadvoc...@yahoogroups.com> Cc: "swpol...@yahoogroups.com" <swpol...@yahoogroups.com> http://connectivity.cqrollcall.com/just-a-handful- of-social-media-comments-can-grab-attention-of-congress- study-shows/?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_ campaign=just-a-handful-of-social-media-comments-can- grab-attention-of-congress-study-shows ************************************************************ ******************* John McNutt, PhD, MSW, Professor School of Public Policy and Administration University of Delaware Newark, DE 19716 302.831.0765 <%28302%29%20831-0765> Twitter: @johngmcnutt | Website: www.policymagic.org aquila non capit muscas Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity.
