#You'reCancelled: Cancel Culture and the Slap Heard around the Oscars

In this episode of the Digital Public Relations Podcast, Jessica, Brynne and Taiya dive into the controversial concept of cancel culture and how it poses a threat to us PR Pros. We talk about how social media plays a key role in the process of canceling someone, and how the opinions of others influence how we feel about certain situations.

When it comes to social media, news can spread like wildfire, especially when the news involves a prominent figure in society. Things can be blown out of proportion and next thing you know you are in full crisis mode. This is why public relation professionals have become even more important in this day and age, we always have a reputation to uphold.

We examine current issues surrounding cancel culture, and celebrities in the spotlight such as Joe Rogan and Will smith. We hope that by the end of this episode you will be able to determine… are these celebrities #canceled or #salvageable?
