Cable News Trending Topics for 2014-08-02
Every so often, a group with a cause will flood Twitter with messages that mention various cable news channels and groups. The goal is almost to raise awareness and affect the news coverage. A while ago, there was an Iranian group and before that a venezuelan group. Yesterday, the hashtag #interviewpalestinians rose to the top position in US Cable News Twitter.
There were about 7.5K tweets that went out with the hashtag, which put it far ahead of any other topic. It also brought the word “gaza” to the top of the lists. It’s hard to say that all of this will do the backers any good, but it’s clear that their voices have been heard.
