“Social media, which consists of social networking sites, content sharing sites, blogs, and micro blogging sites, saw the biggest percentage increase (75 percent) in trust among media sources.”""Edelman Trust Barometer 2012 "

“Smart businesses will take advantage of this dispersion of authority. They will talk to their

employees first, and empower them to drive the conversation

among their peers about the company and its role in society.”"
