Give Me Liberty or Give Me YouTube! Training Staff to Handle First Amendment Auditors
Ease of access to cellphone cameras and video have made it easier for citizen videographers such as First Amendment Auditors to record. This trend in “First Amendment Auditing” often takes place in and around city halls, council chambers, and other public meetings. Due to the rise of these efforts, it is important to properly train staff on how to handle encounters with such groups. This webinar offers tips and recommendations for training staff to handle these difficult situations while still comporting with relevant areas of law. The goal is to educate your city’s employees on how to avoid becoming a star in someone else’s YouTube drama (and avoid liability).
