Show Notes:

Redeye speaks with media scholar Adel Iskandar about the part that Facebook and other social media did -- and did not -- play in the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. Iskandar is co-author of the first major analysis of the satellite TV network Al Jazeera published in 2002. He writes a regular column for the English website of an independent Egyptian newspaper.
