  • Sourcing the Arab Spring: a Case Study of Andy Carvin's Sources During the Tunisian and Egyptian Revolutions
    Sourcing the Arab Spring: A Case Study of Andy Carvin’s Sources During the Tunisian and Egyptian Revolutions Paper presented at the International Symposium on Online Journalism in Austin, TX, April 2012 Alfred Hermida Associate professor, Graduate School of Journalism, University of British Columbia Seth C. Lewis Assistant professor, School of Journalism & Mass Communication, University of Minnesota Rodrigo Zamith Doctoral student, School of Journalism & Mass Communication, University of Minnesota Contact: Alfred Hermida UBC Graduate School of Journalism 6388 Crescent Road Vancouver, BC, V6T 1Z2 Canada Tel: 1 604 827 3540 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper presents a case study on the use of sources by National Public Radio's Andy Carvin on Twitter during key periods of the 2011 Tunisian and Egyptian uprisings. It examines the different actor types on the social media platform to reveal patterns of sourcing used by the NPR social media strategist, who emerged as a key broker of information on Twitter during the Arab Spring. News sourcing is a critical element in the practice of journalism as it shapes from whom journalists get their information and what type of information they obtain. Numerous studies have shown that journalists privilege elite sources who hold positions of power in society. This study evaluates whether networked and distributed social media platforms such as Twitter expand the range of actors involved in the construction of the news through a quantitative content analysis of the sources cited by Carvin. The results show that non-elite sources had a greater influence over the content flowing through his Twitter stream than journalists or other elite sources.

  • Urgent Action
    Further information on UA: 324/13 Index: MDE 12/002/2014 Egypt Date: 13 January 2014 URGENT ACTION FIRST JAILINGS UNDER NEW PROTEST LAW Activists Ahmed Maher and Mohamed Adel, and blogger Ahmed Douma, are facing three years in prison for breaking Egypt’s repressive new protest law. Two of the men are prisoners of conscience. The men do not have access to their lawyers or families. The Abdeen Misdemeanour Court convicted Ahmed Maher, Mohamed Adel and Ahmed Douma on 22 December of taking part in an unauthorized protest on 30 November 2013, “attacking the security forces, destroying public property and disturbing public order”. The court, sitting at the Tora Police Institute, sentenced the men to three years in prison with hard labour and a fine of LE50,000 (US$7,185). The men will remain in prison during the appeal process. The court of appeal convened at the Tora Police Institute on 9 January, but postponed the hearing to 20 January at the request of the defendants’ lawyers. The lawyers had asked the court for an extension to get a copy of the full case-file and to hear the defendants’ opinions about the case. The prison authorities have held the men in solitary confinement since their arrest. Lawyers have told Amnesty International that they have not had access to the men since their conviction, despite repeated requests. On 22 December 2013, the men began a series of hunger-strikes in protest at their detention in Tora Prison. Amnesty International considers Ahmed Maher and Ahmed Douma to be prisoners of conscience, and that Mohamed Adel is likely to be a prisoner of conscience, detained solely for peacefully exercising their right to freedom of assembly.

Alors que les relations entre citoyens et autorités étatiques ont été contestées, modifiées, puis repoussées dans une direction réactionnaire, comment les relations de genre ont-elles été contestées depuis 2011 ? Quels nouveaux imaginaires, quels nouveaux rôles et identités ont été revendiqués ? Quelles mobilisations se sont construites face à l’essor saisissant des violences sexistes dans l’espace public ? Quatre ans après le début de la période révolutionnaire, ce numéro d’Égypte/Monde arabe explore les nouvelles luttes liées au genre en Égypte au prisme de la sociologie, l’anthropologie et la science politique.
