Discussion #8

In at least three brief paragraphs (30 to 50 words each):

1 -- Choose one or more Nike communications crises and describe how the company was effective or ineffective in its response.

2 -- Discuss another company in which you have strong brand loyalty, and how/why the brand has cultivated that emotional bond with you.

3 -- Describe how you believe that brand loyalty might be threatened or strengthened in a crisis, and why.

References to crisis communication research/theories and other class materials are always suggested to support your discussion.
