ESPN'S ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES FOR SOCIAL NETWORKING ESPN regards social networks such as message boards, conversation pages and other forms of social networking such as Facebook and Twitter as important new forms of content. As such, we expect to hold all talent who participate in social networking to the same standards we hold for interaction with our audiences across TV, radio and our digital platforms. This applies to all ESPN Talent, anchors, play by play, hosts, analysts, commentators, reporters and writers who participate in any form of personal social networking that contain sports related content. ESPN Digital Media is currently building and testing modules designed to publish Twitter and Facebook entries simultaneously on ESPN.com , SportsCenter.com, Page 2, ESPN Profile pages and other similar pages across our web site and mobile platforms. The plan is to fully deploy these modules this fall. Specific Guidelines Personal websites and blogs that contain sports content are not permitted Prior to engaging in any form of social networking dealing with sports, you must receive permission from the supervisor as appointed by your department head ESPN.COM may choose to post sports related social media content If ESPN.com opts not to post sports related social media content created by ESPN talent, you are not permitted to report, speculate, discuss or give any opinions on sports related topics or personalities on your personal platforms The first and only priority is to serve ESPN sanctioned efforts, including sports news, information and content * Assume at all times you are representing ESPN http ://profootbal 11/3/2009 iirvs guidelines tor social networking I ProFootballFalk.com Page 3 of 8 * If you wouldn't say it on the air or write it in your column, don't tweet it * Exercise discretion, thoughtfulness and respect for your colleagues, business associates and our fans • Avoid discussing internal policies or detailing how a story or feature was reported, written, edited or produced and discussing stories or features in progress, those that haven't been posted or produced, interviews you've conducted, or any future coverage plans. • Steer clear of engaging in dialogue that defends your work against those who challenge it and do not engage in media criticism or disparage colleagues or competitors • Be mindful that all posted content is subject to review in accordance with ESPN's employee policies and editorial guidelines • Confidential or proprietary company information or similar information of third parties who have shared such information with ESPN, should not be shared Any violation of these guidelines could result in a range of consequences, including but not limited to suspension or dismissal.

I will just continue following local beat writers who post all sorts of great content,.. The only time I even read ESPN is when a blog with "sports related content" posts a link or when someone posts something on Twitter. Why follow an ESPN personality if they cant offer any content? ESPN needs to check out some websites on how to build traffic through social networking. If you have content to offer on your Twitter, people will follow you, then when you post ESPN links, ESPN gets traffic and makes money. I can understand them not wanting their people to get in wars with their Twitter followers, not wanting them to link to big ESPN competitors or posting libelous or unsubstantiated content, but this goes WAY too far, 3. di7 says: Ags4,2QQ9JhQjJEM http ://profootballtalk.nbcsports. com/2009/08/04/espns-guidelines-for-soci al-networking! 11/3/2009 Poynter Online - <i>New York Times<li>' Policy on Facebook and Other Social Network,,. Page 1 of 2 PoynterOnli ne New York Times' Policy on Facebook and Other Social Networking Sites This unedited policy was provided by Craig Whitney, The New York Times' assistant managing editor who oversees journallstic standards. Using "Facebook" in Reporting Facebook and other social networking sites --- MySpace, Linkedln, even Twitter can be remarkably useful reporting tools, as the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007 proved. As we've discovered from the experts on our staff, Facebook pages often tell a lot about a person's work, Interests, friends, and thoughts, and, as one page leads or links to another, Facebook can help reporters do triangulation on difficult-to-research subjects. What people write on Facebook sites is publicly available information, like anything posted on any site that is not encrypted. But there are a few things to be careful about, nonetheless. One of them is that outsiders can read your Facebook page, and that personal blogs and "tweets" represent you to the outside world just as much as an 800- word article does. If you have or are getting a Facebook page, leave blank the section that asks about your political views, In accordance with the Ethical Journalism admonition to do nothing that might cast doubt on your or The Times's political impartiality In reporting the news. Remember that although you might get useful leads by joining a group on one of these sites, it will appear on your page, connoting that you 'joined" it -- potentially complicated if it is a political group, or a controversial group. Be careful not to write anything on a blog or a personal Web page that you could not write in The Times -- don't editorialize, for instance, if you work for the News Department. Anything you post online can and might be publicly disseminated, and can be twisted to be used against you by those who wish you or The Times ill -- whether it's text, photographs, or video. That includes things you recommend on TimesPeople or articles you post to Facebook and Digg, content you share with friends on MySpace, and articles you recommend through TimesPeople. It can also Include things posted by outside parties to your Facebook page, so keep an eye on what appears there. Just remember that we are always under scrutiny by magnifying glass and that the possibilities of digital distortion are virtually unlimited, so always ask yourself, could this be deliberately misconstrued or misunderstood by somebody who wants to make me look bad? Another problem worth thinking about is how careful to be about Facebook "friends." Can we write about someone who Is a "friend?" http://www.poynter.org/content/content print. asp?id= 157136 11/3/2009 Poynter Online - <i>New York Tirnes</i>' Policy on Facebook and Other Social Network... Page 2 of 2 The answer depends on whether a "friend" is really a friend. In general, being a "friend" of someone on Facebook Is almost meaningless and does not signify the kind of relationship that could pose a conflict of interest for a reporter or editor writing about that person.

  • Bob Hughes Vice President, Supplier Relations & Expositions
    March 30, 2018 Dear Members of the Nominating Committee: I am looking forward to our Nominating Committee during the NACS State of the Industry Summit and working with you to populate the board with qualified and diversified candidates. In the April meeting, we will select new, eager suppliers for the NACS Supplier Board. Along with deciding who the new members will be, we will have some challenges as you decide who moves up, who doesn’t and who, unfortunately, will rotate off. Decision One We promote Dave Riser to the chair. I would hope that is obvious, but we still need to vote him up. Decision Two Vice chairs in their 2nd (last term) are Tim Quinn and Drew Mize. Tim recently announced his retirement from Mars Wrigley (May 2018). With this information, we should consider promoting Drew to chair-elect. The other Vice Chair is Rick Brindle, who will be finishing just his first term and can remain Vice Chair for another year. Decision Three We currently have 21 of our allowed 25 supplier seats open (due to retirements or role changes). We like to have 1 or 2 seats open to give the supplier board flexibility to adjust and add a major CPG company or manpower if we are struggling on an initiative. We should also have two available Vice Chair seats, unless we promoted Rick which would give us three openings. The 2015 class that will term off in October 2018 are Brent Cotten and Frank Squilla. Both are very strong contributors that will hopefully find their way up to Vice Chair.

    SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS CLIPS April 8, 2010 Originally published April 7, 2010 at 10:13 PM | Page modified April 7, 2010 at 11:51 PM Mariners bullpen falters in 6-5 loss to Oakland Oakland's Kurt Suzuki drilled a deep fly ball past the glove of Milton Bradley at the left-field wall in the ninth inning, handing reliever Mark Lowe and the Mariners a 6-5 walkoff loss. By Geoff Baker Seattle Times staff reporter OAKLAND, Calif. - The realities of a six-man bullpen began hitting the Mariners about as hard as their opponent was by the time the fifth inning rolled around. It was clear by then that Seattle starter Ryan Rowland-Smith would have to scratch and claw just to make it through the minimum five innings his team desperately needed Wednesday night. After that, it was Russian roulette time, as the Mariners played a guessing game with their limited relief corps, squeezing every last pitch they could out of some arms. But they couldn't get the job completely done as Kurt Suzuki drilled a deep fly ball past the glove of Milton Bradley at the left-field wall in the ninth inning, handing reliever Mark Lowe and the Mariners a 6-5 walkoff loss. After the game, manager Don Wakamatsu suggested the team would have to call up another bullpen arm if a similar long-relief scenario occurs in Thursday's series finale. "We can't keep going like this," Wakamatsu said. The second walkoff defeat in two nights for the Mariners, in front of 18,194 at the Coliseum, has them crossing their fingers that starters Doug Fister and Jason Vargas don't implode these next two days.

However, few could have imagined that the Boston Celtics would 5 compile the best record in the NBA in the 2007-2008 season, 66-16, and add to their glorious 6 tradition by defeating hated arch-rival the Los Angeles Lakers and MVP Kobe Bryant to win their 7 league leading seventeenth NBA Championship; and 8 WHEREAS, Kevin Garnett, a superstar playing in relative anonymity for most of his 9 career in Minnesota, was a joy and revelation to observe as he led the Celtics back to glory. We 10 all knew about his intimidating shot-blocking ability, his fierce rebounding skills, his ability to 11 run the court and score quick baskets, his defensive prowess and his superb low post game and 12 sweet outside shot, but his off-court demeanor was even more impressive.
