The Washington Auto Show meets the press
When a tier one auto show like The Washington Auto Show (WAS) kicks into high gear, it is inevitable that the local and national press come calling and headlines fill the pages of newspapers, magazines, websites, blogs and news programs, across the cable and broadcast networks. This years WAS was no exception with both Public Policy Days (Jan. 26-27) heavily covered and subsequent days blogged and tweeted about with regularity.
Monday, Jan. 31, was a particularly busy day in the Facebook and Tweeter world as fans of Snooki from Jersey Shore, lit up the social network with comments from the show floor. The Auto Shows website http://www.washingtonautoshow.com/ has also seen significant traffic gains as the WAS advertising and marketing program built over the month of January and into the show days.
Among the many media outlets to cover the show were The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Politico, The Atlantic, Automotive News, Reuters, CNN, NBC Washington (which produced a 30-minute segment from the show hosted by anchor Jim Vance and shown repeatedly on its digital channel) and nationally syndicated Entertainment Tonight.
