Add bookmark

In this edition of our popular podcast series, 'Social Media and the Military', David Bailey speaks with Lt Col Tom Brouns who is the voice behind 'Why Afghanistan Matters' - a site which outlines the military's take on the mission in Afghanistan. They discuss the finer points of control in media, whether it be from official sources or from private citizens - and how military media relations has misinterpreted the traditional OPSEC mission in Afghanistan. Tom Brouns talks about how he is humanising the NATO voice in Afghanistan, as well as how he expresses dissent within the larger NATO media message.
