When crisis comms gets into a crisis of its own… kind of

It could be suggested that crisis comms crack teams in Australia have been having a good year.

Might there have been a few involved in sorting out the situation when Katie Hopkins randomly appeared in our country recently and then quickly got escorted back out? Surely there would have been a few involved with all the communications challenges around Astra Zeneca’s COVID-19 vaccine. For sure there are more than a few working for the Tokyo Olympics right now. Probably not so much at iSentia recently though.

Regardless, Dr Mumbo was fascinated to see a debate around the very art of crisis comms surface on Twitter recently.
