Hi all,

We just published "Wikimedia v. NSA update: first hearing" to the blog. Thanks go to Aeryn and Jim for the post: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/09/28/wikimedia-nsa-first-hearing/

Proposed social messages from Aeryn and Jim follow:

Facebook/Google+:

• On September 25, the first hearing took place in Wikimedia v. NSA, on the government’s motion to dismiss. Read more on the Foundation blog at [link].

Meh, the link will be showing in the preview. At the very least I'd eliminate "at" (just do the period after Blog). However I'm also not entirely sure the 2nd sentence is actually needed. The invitation is already there implicitly and it feels a bit weird. If we really want to keep it in there I'd try to work into the body itself.

I'm fine with just the first sentence if we want to do that. Some random other thoughts (either for now or later) to think about:

• On Friday, September 25, 2015, the first hearing in Wikimedia v. NSA took place in Alexandria, Virginia with the ACLU Representing the WMF's fight against the government motion to dismiss.
  
• I like getting the location in there if we can, it just brings it a bit of grounding imo.

 

Twitter:

• .@ACLU represents WMF at hearing in Wikimedia v. NSA re. motion to dismiss. [link]

• First hearing in Wikimedia v. NSA, on government’s motion to dismiss. [link]

both LGTM, prefer 2nd over 1st . Could also rework to add ACLU in:

• First hearing in Wikimedia v. NSA, on government’s motion to dismiss proceeds with @ACLU representation https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/09/28/wikimedia-nsa-first-hearing/
