How Do Cos. Respond To Unflattering Facebook Photos?

Do companies ever untag themselves from unflattering photos?

Facebook began allowing users to tag brands in photos in May. So, what could possibly go wrong? Well, plenty. And if something does go wrong, which companies are the quickest to respond?

Jason Feifer of Fast Company decided to answer those questions. He wanted to know whether companies would untag themselves from unflattering photos uploaded by others.

Coca-Cola was the fastest among companies that untagged the test photos, and it was joined by slower counterparts Papa John’s, Domino’s, and Oreo.

Meanwhile, photos posted and tagged on the pages of Cheerios, Snickers, Bridgestone Tires, Crest, and Dunkin Donuts were never untagged.
