One of the challenges for public relations is that the goal is to create a very well-crafted message before it gets out among the public, but to do that can be very difficult.Not that long ago, when newspapers gave us most of the news we needed, the paper could print a story and then later print a retraction. These days, things are very different. News gets carried by social media at a rapid pace, and in so many directions, that a retraction may go nowhere at all, while the original story - albeit erroneous - goes as far as it can. If someone within the company learns something new, they can literally share it with all their friends in mere moments. As a result, it becomes even more important that we spread news that is worthy of being shared and sends the message that we intended.Naturally, many companies do a really good job with their public relations. They have dedicated communicators on staff who understand their own jobs and who create a message that reflects the organization's brand and mission. They also carefully craft a message that can be effectively and efficiently released through social media, spreading the image of the company that they want to share."
