On Brand with Nick Westergaard Social Sound Bite: Air Force Warns That “Loose Tweets Destroy Fleets”
On this week’s Social Sound Bite – recorded live at the KXIC studios in Iowa City – Jay and I discussed something of a throwback campaign. Hearkening back to the Navy’s World War II propaganda poster “loose lips sink ships,” the Air Force has repurposed this message for the social age, warning service men and women that “loose tweets destroy fleets.” Listen for the full sound bite and enjoy these useful links to the news, trends, and tips included in this week’s show.
Beyond the Sound Bite
- Air Force ‘Loose Tweets’ slogan warns of social media dangers (Stars and Stripes).
