  1. I like how you were able to communicate some of the things the social media group incorporates in its meetings. Knowing the time crunch, maybe just whip the rest of it together and I think the LOGAN, Utah – (Sept. 13, 2011) needs to appear higher, but I know its just a draft anyway. :)

  2. Ok, here are a few mistakes I saw. The sub-head is too lengthy. It doesn't need (Sept. 13, 2011) in the dateline since you have it after for immediate release. The quote is not proper AP style. It's missing the boilerplate.

    That being said, you got more accomplished than i did so congrats! I'm sure all of the mistakes are due to a lack of time (I know mine are). Besides the few minor mistakes, I love the first paragraph and the general message you are sending! I can't wait to read your final draft because this is a great start.

  3. I feel like there are definitely mistakes, but they can most likely be attributed to the fact that this was done VERY quickly. Overall I like it, I would just fix up the minor mistakes like Amanda noted and add more information about meetings, it's pretty short!
