The Pentagon’s social media guru visits Ogilvy Washington
by Nu Wexler
Category: Public Affairs
Last week, the Defense Department’s social media guru, Price Floyd, visited a packed house at Ogilvy Washington for the latest installment of our National Security Strategy lecture series.
Floyd’s presentation explained the various new media channels the Pentagon is using to communicate with the public, potential recruits and its 2.6 million military servicemen and women around the world. Fascinating stuff, especially coming from a government agency that hasn’t been as open as many others. See for yourself below, and let us know what you think.

The Ogilvy Exchange lecture was free and open to the public. It was a widely attended event, with attendees from the news media, Congressional staff, Department of Defense agencies, the military services and foreign embassy staff.
