متابعة حسابات وسائل الإعلام على تويتر وعلاقته بتشكيل اتجاهات الرأي العام نحو الاستفتاء على التعديل الدستوري في الجزائر

Abstract EN

This study revolves around the concept of determining the role of Twitter media accounts in shaping the Algerian public opinion towards the referendum on the constitutional amendment of 2020.

The current descriptive study essentially aims to obtain sufficient and accurate data about its topic within a scientifically organised framework, and that relies on survey methods.

The study resulted in emphasising the decline of traditional media role to the account of social media, in addition to what the latter has produced as recent media practices on social networks.

This has prompted the Algerian media to integrate into social network environments, and to make use of its applications in performing its traditional roles.

However, the current study was unable to find a clear relationship between the use of Twitter network, and the formation of a predominant public opinion that has a specific position towards the referendum on the constitutional amendment, although it concluded that one of the most important reasons for following up on Algerian media accounts is the desire to know more about the proposed amendments in order to form a clear trend towards it, not only through what is published, but through the discussion that follows it.
