Preserving Evidence of Internet Publication

I presented on preserving evidence of internet publication today at our semi-annual internal professional development session. I used the session to promote immediate, periodic and broad preservation because when content comes down from social media sites it is as good as lost. My worry is that objectionable words will be preserved without also preserving the relevant context thereby impeding prosecution by opening up a spoliation issue.
