Social media a key conduit for warnings and hope during #HurricaneMichael
Though Facebook and Instagram feature emotional images, Twitter is the main channel for sharing updates and broadcasting corporate social responsibility efforts.
Florida Gov. Rick Scott expressed concern about the death toll.
“My biggest concern would be loss of life,” he said.
FEMA chief Brock Long said he worried about people who hadn’t evacuated when they had the chance.
The Times continued:
“People do not live to tell the tale about storm surge,” he said.
Social media channels are full of images of the destruction from Hurricane Michael’s wrath:
