Example of the power of social media Facebook Users Protest Susan G. Komen De-Funding Planned ParenthoodJennifer Moire on February 1, 2012 9:08 PM The group famous for the breast cancer pink ribbon faces about 20 negative posts per minute on Facebook over the sudden decision to pull funding of preventative breast cancer programs, such as mammograms, for low-income women at Planned Parenthood affiliates. Komen claims that since Planned Parenthood is facing a congressional investigation, its newly revised rules won’t allow funding of such programs. Most posts on Facebook take Planned Parenthood’s side of things, arguing that Komen’s decision was based on pressure from right -wing groups. The anti-Komen sentiment on Facebook is picking up steam, with posts appearing every 25-45 seconds on average today. Facebook posts supporting Komen’s decision are just starting to show up online, and some of these are featured below. The online campaign pressuring Komen to reverse course is following a familiar template: resharing of the same links and paid Facebook advertising.

How do I get on?
Now you will have a wall. This is yours to customize
So now its time to set up your privacy...
Setting who can see your posts
Walls, pages and groups A wall is an individual's place where they post comments, pictures and all your personal information The home page is where you see what all your friends are doing in one place
Walls, pages and groups How are pages different than Groups? Pages allow real organizations, businesses, celebrities and brands to communicate broadly with people who like them. Pages may only be created and managed by official representatives. Groups provide a closed space for small groups of people to communicate about shared interests. Groups can be created by anyone.
