3AW. Social media since 1967. Social media. It’s the almost unrestricted flow of information and ideas. It’s interactive, empowering and entertaining. It puts media power in the hands of the people. Sound familiar? That’s because a different kind of social media has been with us since 1967 – talkback radio. And 3AW was right there at its genesis. 3AW. It’s social media at its best – 24/7 and now with over 650,000 dedicated followers every week. Now that’s something to tweet about! @3AW693
