Reflection on Social Media Case 11: OK Go Gravity Song


There seems to have been a very large miscommunication in this case study. Who was responsible from S7 Airlines for posting the video? Why would they post the music video before the band who’s video it is? It is also interesting that they used different platforms to post the music video. It was good that the video got taken down from YouTube pretty shortly after. I can understand why OK Go would be very upset by this incident. If a big artist today were to make a music video and have a lot of anticipation behind it and then someone else posted it before them, it would be a big deal for that artist.

This is an interesting article about music being leaked and what that means for the artist. In this article it talked about how music leaks are becoming more common with social media. This can sometimes mean that an artist has to release an album earlier than they were wanting to to try and combat the leak. It also talked about “hackers” leaking music and even mentioned a twitter fight that Drake staged with his label criticizing them for taking down the same music that he was putting up.

This article talks more about the comparison between Facebook Watch and YouTube. I didn’t realize that Facebook Watch was more than just the videos that pop up on your screen until recently. A couple weeks before the super bowl Facebook came out with a series called Tom vs. Time, this was the first time I had used Facebook watch. I liked the format of it and it reached me because I’m on Facebook. Although I have a YouTube account I go on there searching for something. It’s not often that I’m scrolling through YouTube looking for different videos to watch like I am on Facebook. Right now everyone “influencer” I follow on social media posts their videos to YouTube it will be interesting to see if that ever switches over to Facebook watch.

    I did not know Facebook Watch was a thing either. With all the policies changes happening I wonder if influencers will start switching to it. Good post!

    I had heard of Facebook watch before but never knew how to use it or where it was located. Good job!

Reflection on Social Media Case 8: Pastor's 10% to God

To start off this was an interesting case study. It makes me angry for the server and really all servers that are constantly being treated like tips are optional. I understand if they work somewhere that pays them an hourly wage of more than $2 an hour tips aren’t the most important thing but for most servers that isn’t the case. I can understand why the servers friend would post the receipt on the internet and I don’t think she deserved to be fired for it. Yes, it was a violation of the pastor’s privacy but also I don’t blame her for posting it. I think she had everyone right to post that because she was angry and wanted to see how ignorant people can be but I do think she should’ve blurred out the name or crossed it out so everyone on the internet couldn’t see who she was talking about. So no, I don’t think she should have been fired but yes there should have been consequences This article is talking about how a few years ago in Utah a bill got defeated that would...

Reflection on Social Media Case 12: United Breaks Guitars

There has been more than one instant that makes me hesitant to fly with United Airlines. This case study adds another reason to my list. In regards to this being an example of any press is good press I would say it isn’t. If I was the owner of United, I wouldn’t want people to know this story. It is evident by the dramatic price loss in two days that customers don’t like hearing stories like this. Between the incident with David Dao, the incident that happened not very long ago with the puppy being killed, and now this incident with the breaking of guitars I am less than eager to fly with United. I thought Dave Carroll’s approach to getting the word out about his experience with United was very smart considering what his line of work is. He was able to reach a broad audience this way and that made United do something about the situation. I find United’s way of apologizing by offering to buy him a new guitar is a bit of a pitiful effort. They were obviously effected...

Reflection on Social Media Case 5: Paypal Deleted Comments

When is it okay to delete comments on social media? It isn’t okay to delete comments because they are say something negative about your business that you don’t agree with. When a company delete comments from their social media because they are off topic or negative it makes that company look bad. This article gives a run down on when it is okay to delete comments. I like this article because it is pretty cut and dry of when to delete comments and when to leave them up. One of the things that it says is that if the comment is negative but civil leave it up because customers deserve to have their voice be heard. It was interesting to me that with the Paypal incident people were commenting negative comments on a post that had nothing to do with what the content of the post was. This goes to show that when people want their opinion on something to be heard they will post it wherever it will be seen. Paypal was not expecting that reaction on their post and they handled i...
