Having talked about the advantages of using and monitoring social media, I can’t help posting the article I came across not long ago.

On the Facebook page “The Secret Behind The Walls at Beaumont Animal Services” pictures of animals from Animal Services in Beaumont, Texas appear with captions describing conditions at the facility which seem to be not the best ones…While putting words in an animal’s mouth may seem like a great move for a platform like Facebook, look at this: last week, the Beaumont Enterprise reported that Beaumont Animal Services has initiated a lawsuit against the page’s administrators, charging them with libel and slander for posting untrue and defamatory information.

Whats the conclusion? Be careful when using social media…It might turn against you!
