[Air-L] Twitter and Politicians: Request for Resources

[Cherry Mathew Philipose]

Dear Fellow AoIR Members

Greetings from India!

I was wondering whether any of you know of any study on the phenomenon of
political leaders in some countries (e.g. India, US) preferring Twitter
over other SM platforms to communicate, engage and even break news?

My initial search results on Google Scholar can be found here: twitter
world leader politics - Google Scholar
<https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=twitter+world+leader+politics&btnG=>.
I'm not sure whether I used the correct keywords to get anything relevant.

Thanks and regards.
