The “Rock the Vote” con- cert partnered with the Or- ange County Registrar of Voters in an effort to get more students to register to vote for the upcoming elec- tion. The concert was the first of many events that will be hosted in collab- oration with the campus community through orga- nizations such as CSUF Re- publicans, College Dem- ocrats of CSUF and the Orange County Registrar of Voters. Both the Orange Coun- ty Registrar of Voters and CSUF’s political clubs were present to encourage stu- dents to vote, and help some of them to fill out voter reg- istration forms. During introductory re- marks, Neal Kelley, whose role in the Orange Coun- ty Registrar of Voters con- cerns voter registration and elections throughout the county, said that student voices needed to be heard in this election, regardless of who they were voting for.

  • Social Media in the Middle East
    SOCIAL MEDIA IN THE MIDDLE EAST: 2019 IN REVIEW KEY DEVELOPMENTS, STORIES AND RESEARCH FINDINGS FROM THE PAST 12 MONTHS DAMIAN RADCLIFFE AND HADIL ABUHMAID INTRODUCTION This report is the eighth in an annual series of publications, dating back to 2012, designed to share the latest stories, trends and research in social media usage from across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Using a wide variety of academic, industry and media sources, this White Paper identifies important insights from social media’s development over the previous year. Of particular note in 2019 is the continued, growing, importance of social media in the lives of Arab Youth, outside of Saudi Arabia and Turkey the declining usage of Twitter (once the poster child social network for the Arab Spring,) as well as greater scrutiny of social media usage by platform owners and governments alike. Last year’s report highlighted the increasing weaponization of social networks, a trend which continued in 2019. Facebook, Twitter and Telegram each closed hundreds of accounts due to inappropriate use by state sponsored actors and terrorist groups. Social networks were also the target of governments across MENA, in the midst of protests in many countries throughout the region. Meanwhile, the importance of social video and visually-led social networks, continued to grow. Snapchat introduced new advertising formats to the region and other exclusive functionality, Google highlighted the importance of YouTube in supporting parents and parenting, and in major markets such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, Twitter has emerged as a leading platform for online video consumption.

We honor and support the Overseas Press Club and the 2015 award winners, and wish them continued success. © 2016 Thomson Reuters S032094/4-16 PRESIDENT’S LETTER | MARCUS MABRY elcome to the 77th Annual OPC Gala and to this outstanding issue of Dateline. This event, and this magazine, celebrate the work that we do as journalists covering the world. Ours has become an increasingly hazardous profession, even as it has grown increasingly crucial to an ever-more- W connected planet. That is why the OPC joined last year with the FRONTLINE Freelance Register, Reporters Without Borders, the Committee to Protect Journalists, DART, other advocacy groups and 90 news organizations to sign the Global Safety Principles and Practices for protecting freelancers in dangerous overseas assignments. Often the danger seems to grow in direct proportion to the importance of the work. Sometimes the threat is to our lives, sometimes it is merely to our livelihoods. As our profession has faced economic and technological challenges and our jobs have become both harder and harder to come by, the world we cover has become harder too. In the last months alone, a flood of human beings—we call them refugees or migrants, but they are people, like you and me, often with children, like you and me—has pushed its way to Europe merely seeking safety and security.
