Scholars of journalism look at how different communicators-whether professionals such as crisis managers, first responders, and journalists or private citizens and disaster victims-have used social media to communicate about risks and crises. They also suggest how these very different actors can play a crucial role in mitigating or preventing crises. Among their topics are tweeting terror: an analysis of the Norwegian Twitter-sphere during and in the aftermath of the 22 July 2011 terrorist attack, social media in the management of the terror crisis in Norway: experiences and lessons learning, old wine in new bottles: the use the established British news media use of Twitter during the 2014-15 West African ebola outbreak, tailoring tools to the rescue: lessons from developing a social media information gathering tool, and when the levee breaks: recommendations for social media use during environmental disasters.
