And I can't agree with you more about having a plan in place AHEAD OF TIME.  You'll never know the specifics of the crisis, but a lot of the tactics will be the same. @Jonathan Bentz – Thanks for stopping by again.  It really is a whole new paradigm that folks are struggling to wrap their heads around.  Stories can’t be controlled, they get out quickly, and have no geographic bounds.

Any time someone is given the forum to respond, instantly, and doesn't use it... they have to get the thumbs down in my book. In this age especially, PR people that immediately hide behind the scheduled press conference 48 hours after an incident are in big trouble. Have a plan in place for the potential if. At least that way, you have a chance to respond in a timely manner. I agree with you 100%, Justin.
