Syria Uprisings

  On April 22, 2011, NBC Evening News ran a news story on Syrian uprisings using images of streets filled with protestors, injured or dead citizens, and protestors demolishing a statue of the regime’s founder the father of the current President of Syria.  Also mentioned were the protestors' use of social media to get the word out and to cry for help.  The tone was one of alarm at the numbers of civilians being killed.  There was no particular strategy, just to make the viewers aware of what is happening in Syria.
