The Albuquerque Fire Department is getting ready to unveil a new social media policy.
The department said it will restrict vulgar posting and any pictures that can be tied back to the department. One firefighter listed his profession as a 911 expletive.
Part of the new policy is expected to mirror an APD policy launched in March which affects sites like Facebook and MySpace.
