The protests in Iran are turning into a revolution, however, social networking websites had very little to do with it. The reason why they are getting kudos is because they helped people bypass the failure of the mainstream media to cover the events in Iran and get informed about what was really happening on the streets of Tehran as well as shore up outside support for the cause.
Get this straight; it was your failure to provide timely and accurate news regarding the events in Iran that forced the citizens of the world to step up and help educate people about the courage and perseverance of the Iranian people and the brutality and inhumanity of the Iranian government. You can whine all you want, but you have failed. And the fact that you failed does not give you the right to attempt and devalue the work of others.
