Agenda Setting
Twitter is big with trending topics that allow different topics to be more relevant then
others, there is a section for trending on twitter and that’s what most people are talking
about on twitter which gives certain topics more power on this site.
Symbolic interactionism
The use of hashtags play a huge role in symbolic interactionism because when you tweet
and use a hashtag at the bottom it instantly gets thrown into that thread of tweets just
because you used the hashtag at the bottom, such as #BlackLivesMatter or
#bluelivesmater
Media Logic
Twitter is more about a following then anything and when you are famous you have more
of a persuasion on people for instance when a celebrity tweets about a fast food place or
some actual object the stocks usually go up tremendously because of the huge following
and persuasion that famous people have on twitter.
