For example, Dutton (2009) and (Newman et al, 2012) have argued that social media platforms have contributed to the emergence of the 'Fifth Estate', thereby allowing audiences to share their views with worldwide publics and to engage directly with one another in this new public space and with international news media organisations.…”
