On the one hand, we have the Islamic State spreading its message via social media. And, on the other hand, we have the U.S. intensifying its efforts to blunt ISIS message. This could get interesting.
Its been less than a year since IS burst onto the stage, seizing large amounts of territory and shocking the world with its brutally violent tactics. During that time, the group has evolved into a highly sophisticated multimedia organization, boasting slick social media strategies that could give major corporate marketing teams a run for their money. IS knows how to package its extremist ideology in the form of well-produced videos, attractive graphics, polished magazines and strategic online posts. Its also strikingly savvy at spreading them online, tailoring their presentation and message to media sites like Twitter, YouTube and Vine.
