title = "Choice of information: A study of twitter news sharing during the 2009 israel-gaza conflict",
abstract = "The study explores determinants of the prominence of public information sources in Twitter. Twitter users are conceptualized as the {"}gated{"} who play an active role in selecting and distributing news sources through their Twitter messages. Using Twitter data on the Israel-Gaza conflict, the study identifies three determinants that characterize information sources: whether they are produced by mainstream media, whether they are filtered through aggregator services, and the number of in-links to the source media generated by the online public.",
