At a PRSA-NCC media roundtable last year, which included reporters from CNN and Reuters, reporters shared that they often gather information about their sources/subjects (even capture images and video) from social media sites, like Facebook and LinkedIn. So while PR professionals should have social media presence(s) when working with the media, it also suggests that an organization's leadership and spokespersons should also have strategic social media profiles by reporters for research.
