This document discusses creating consumer confidence in corporate social responsibility (CSR) communications. It analyzes different types of CSR media based on who verifies the information - the company or third parties. Company-verified communications like advertising face skepticism, while third party sources like labels and consumer guides are more trusted due to their independence. The conclusion is that consumers are skeptical rather than cynical of company messages and prefer CSR communications to focus on specific societal actions and outcomes rather than benefits to the company or vague promises.
