Folks, as you may know, I've been doing a lot of work with good orgs who are doing factchecking work and voter protection. With the big election coming up in November, news outlets are increasingly covering campaign stops and primary results. The craigconnects team commissioned a national survey of likely voters to find out the real deal about what they look for in a news outlet, the trustworthiness of news outlets, and their opinion about the effect of social media on news quality. Check out the infographic to see the survey results.

Want to know which nonprofits are exceeding in social media? So did we over at craigconnects. While a lot of nonprofits working on similar issues such as Animal Welfare and Veterans, have been doing social media for a while, we wondered if certain nonprofits issues areas were doing social media better than others.

Are nonprofits utilizing social media to engage folks? Organizations like the American Red Cross and the Wilderness Society sure are, but many nonprofits need to do a better job. After taking a look at the Nonprofit Times list of 100 top nonprofits based on income, my team over at craigconnects checked out who was proactively and effectively utilizing social media in August and September of 2011.
