The involvement of celebrities like Jay-Z, Beyonce, and Kim Kardashian in Nigerian events is contrasted with the current #BringBackOurGirls hashtag activism.

The New York Police Department's social media campaign using the hashtag #myNYPD resulted in a "bash tag" as users flooded the feed with images of alleged police brutality. While the department intended to show civic harmony, the public used the opportunity to catalog incidents of officers charging protesters and using force. The hosts speculate that the PR blunder may have originated from John Miller's office or a naive social media manager.

President Barack Obama launched a social media campaign using the hashtag #My2k to pressure Congress regarding the fiscal cliff and middle-class tax cuts. The branding is criticized for its phonetic similarity to the Y2K computer glitch, which is characterized here as a historical hoax or scam. The campaign aims to highlight the $2,000 tax increase families might face, but the choice of terminology is mocked as poor messaging by the Curry-Dvorak Consulting Group.

Twitter's management of the #RNC2012 hashtag is scrutinized for appearing vetted and monitored to suppress negative sentiment.

Adam Curry details a "secret decoder ring" system for show notes and discusses his article on the mechanics of social media revolutions.

The discussion shifts to the evolution of Twitter from a social platform to a critical news-gathering tool. Using tools like Twitterfall and hashtag tracking, real-time data points from protests in London are analyzed, contrasting this raw data with repetitive mainstream media helicopter shots. The hosts argue that true citizen journalism is a new system of data points rather than the old newspaper model of writing stories.
