Thanks
I was hoping to do a recorded interview. We're a radio program - I wasn't
really looking for background or comment. Is it possible to have someone on
to
talk about the account?
Thanks,
Dawna

You can use the following from me as CIA Spokesperson:
"The takedown of bin Ladin, America's most wanted terrorist, stands as one of
the great intelligence successes of all time. History has been a key element
of
CIA's social media efforts. On the fifth anniversary, it is appropriate to
remember the day and honor all those who had a hand in this achievement."
"We have regularly tweeted and posted about historical events including the
Glomar operation, the Argo operation, the U-2 shootdown, and the evacuation
of
Saigon. CIA's most recent history-related tweets related to the 55th
anniversary of the Bay of Pigs on the 19th of April."
On the public response to the posts:
"CIA's tweets on the bin Ladin raid garnered more than 11 million views.
CIA's Twitter account gained more than 20,000 new followers since the bin
Ladin
raid tweets began. It was highest day of follower growth in past 12 months."
CIA's social media efforts have received recognition and an award:
http://www.nextgov.com/feature/nextgov-bold-awards-2015/
(FROM THE NEXT GOV
AWARD: The CIA Web Team, brought a clandestine agency to the public's eye.
Upon
launching @CIA, the agency gained more than 440,000 followers in the first 24
hours. Being more open allows the CIA to directly address myths and concerns,
occasionally adding humor to garner a broad audience.)
Attached is the CIA Press Release when we launched our Twitter and Facebook
accounts.
For reference here are other historical twitter packages:
