The Role of Social Media in the Arab Spring

The article I found was about the role of social media in the Arab Spring. Many individuals including myself, were confused of its role. This article lets readers be aware of the role of the social media in the Arab Springs. For instance, many individuals believe that the role was for harnessing international attention and organizing protest, however, it could also be an oppressive regime to take down others. This article allows readers to see why protestors chose the social media like Facebook, Twitter, and Blogger, to speak their voices to the public instead of the news.
