Fox 45: Baltimore City Spends Over $50,000 Polishing Democrat Councilmembers’ Social Media

EXCERPT:

ABELL (voice-over): "The latest request before the board of estimates this week came from 12th District councilman Jermaine Jones. Jones asked the board to approve a contract with Johnson Advisory Group. It amounted to more than $51,000 and would help the councilman develop a social media strategy assisting on sites like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. One of the missions is to enhance the council person’s visibility. The firm would also handle the councilman's media campaigns and to build a positive relationship with local media outlets to ensure accurate and impactful coverage of the council person’s activities."
