In at least 150 words, evaluate the pros and cons of the internet and social media for those serving in government.

Pros – through the use of social media, a politician is more accessible to his or her constituents. If someone has a question or a concern, he or she should be able to directly address the politician. And a politician will be able to then respond as well. It improves the contact be those who are governed and the ones who govern. The internet allows for immediate contact in multiply directions.

Cons – messages can be numerous and/or one person may be unable to respond to a significant number of his or her constituents. There is no real accountability for people who use fake accounts and then attack and/or spam the politicians. As it allows for people to express themselves with immediacy, some people may frequently react emotionally, instead of thoughtfully.

Social media allows and encourages genuine discourse and discussion to occur, but as with everything it depends on the responsibility of the users to use it effectively and with honest purposes.
