Volume 12, Issue 1 May 2015 Mapping networks of influence: Tracking Twitter conversations through time and space Alistair Willis, Open University, UK Ali Fisher, Independent Researcher Ilia Lvov, University of St. Andrews, Scotland Abstract: The increasing use of social media around global news events, such as the London Olympics in 2012, raises questions for international broadcasters about how to engage with users via social media in order to best achieve their individual missions. Twitter is a highly diverse social network whose conversations are multi-directional involving individual users, political and cultural actors, athletes and a range of media professionals. In so doing, users form networks of influence via their interactions affecting the ways that information is shared about specific global events. This article attempts to understand how networks of influence are formed among Twitter users, and the relative influence of global news media organisations and information providers in the Twittersphere during such global news events.

BBC Scotland: Executive Report November 2013
BBC Scotland: Executive Report November 2013 Commonwealth Games and Scotland’s Independence Referendum: 2014 Commonwealth Games The BBC’s coverage of the Olympics last year set a new gold standard for how broadcasters cover global sporting events. It raised audience expectations and our aim is to replicate all the main ingredients that made the Olympics such a broadcasting success. BBC coverage of the Commonwealth Games will be the most extensive ever and support for our approach has been publicly stated by David Grevemberg, Chief Executive of Glasgow 2014, who recently said: “We’re really delighted to see the range and depth of commitment demonstrated by the BBC and which will take coverage of the Commonwealth Games to a new and exciting level.” We plan to broadcast each day from 0600 to just before midnight on BBC One across the UK. In addition, as during the Olympic Games, broadcast hours will be extended on BBC Three, subject to the necessary approvals. The broadcasts will be anchored from a studio built on the banks of the Clyde opposite the Hydro, and the Foyer at Pacific Quay. BBC Breakfast will move from their normal Salford base and relocate to Glasgow for the Games’ duration. In addition to live TV coverage, viewers also want choice. We produced 24 separate streams of live sport for London 2012, to ensure that every sport could be seen live. We will offer the same level of choice for the Commonwealth Games. We will provide 15 streams via the BBC Sport website ensuring that all 17 sports (including para sports) are available to viewers.
