We must all do better on mental health
It's a shame to see some of the social media say, do gaps on #WorldMentalHealthDay
Reminder England laws for unfounded claims on SoMe, which can impact mental health of wrongly targetted:

The legal risk of making assumptions is too high when being evidence-led, very practice of PR, is good practice
I'm sure @DBanksy has a bit to say on this,on the risks of using social media for unfounded claims which have been known to impact mental health

A thread on defamation and why those, including PRs who post on social media opinion as fact without evidence are risking legal action.
In-country laws, any international laws law are vital knowledge area of practicing PR.
It's not a lawyer's responsibility, it's an individual's.
I just posted on social media' or 'they were my opinions and assumptions' but without evidence is defamation.
Trying to make a fact appear to be an opinion would not protect someone from legal address or a legal case.
Defence of 'honest comment' is one of the defences that can be used. This is the right of free speech allowing a person to express an opinion, even if it is prejudiced, exaggerated or obstinate. However, it must also be based on fact.
