Last week, I was covering a congressional hearing, along with reporters from other media outlets. The subject was possible reform of the federal law that regulates commercial chemicals. The American Chemistry Council (ACC), a trade association that represents large chemical manufacturers, posted a tweet during the hearing, emphasizing, of course, the industry perspective. ACC twittered an industry briefing that followed the hearing too. ACC also posted links to news stories on the hearing. Those tweets asked "What's your take? Agree or disagree?" and "Whose account is more accurate? Let us know!" You can find the tweets by searching for essential2 on Twitter.
