For the journalism and social media panel: is it ethical for a reporter who is covering a story in the traditional sense to also offer commentary on that same story via a concurrent Twitter feed?

For the social media & health care industry panel: since patients were such early adopters of social media, using online communities to connect and share information around specific ailments and disorders, why do you think the health care industry has been at the polar end of the spectrum in terms of rate of adoption?

Directed at Panel 3 – I am working with a customer base that tends to be “less internet savvy” than most, the Heating & Air Conditioning repair field. Online advertising and a strong internet presence has been difficult in the past with minimal results.
Do you feel that using social media in this situation would be a worthwhile approach where other areas have failed and why?

Question for Dave Foulk:
Can you describe the changes you’ve seen in news reporting since the rapid adoption of social media services like twitter? Are these changes good?
Thanks!

Questions I sent Nicole for the journalism panel (No. 2):
* Being “human” (genuine) is a hallmark of participation on social networks such as Twitter or Facebook. How does this translate to newsrooms where objectivity and being impartial are critical to credibility?
* Many Fortune 500 companies such as IBM have instituted polices on social media, which dictate what employees can and cannot do. Should newsrooms do this as well? If so, how might they be different?
* How has the immediacy of Twitter in reporting breaking news impacted the journalism being done for traditional outlets such as newspapers, television and radio?
* What is the most significant opportunity social media brings to traditional media in your opinion and why?
* What protocols should journalists have for using tweets, facebook updates and other status updates in stories?
* The recent Christian and Newsom trials saw many local reporters live-tweeting the courtroom proceedings (#cntrial). Was this an effective use of Twitter for journalistic purposes? Why or why not?

Panel 3
Our company has the same problem as Leslie. We have been working with Facebook but want to get the biggest ROI as possible. I originally set it up as a friend’s page because that was what my internet designer and several consultants I’ve met did. So far we have 429 friends, fans of 173 and members of 33 groups. What is the best direction to go – friends, fans or members – for a business to business and business to consumer company? And why? Thanks
