PROTEST IN TURKEY: TACTICS
Citizen video: Michelle McCloskey writes for WITNESS,  "As the #OccupyGezi protests have surged, Turkish mainstream media has foundered, failing to cover the anti-government demonstrations for fear of retribution. Citizen journalists–”sivil gazeteci,” in Turkish–have stepped up to fill the role so that the Turkish people and the world can see what's happening in the country."
