Politically, today's mediatized pub6c sphere where traditional media play the role of information hubs is highly uneven in terms of auess to opinion expression; it privileges institutional players, including political elites, corporations, and media themselves. Hopes that Twitter would provide a more equal space for public deliberation are still not proven weD enough. Using web crawling and manual assessment of Twitter ad-hoc discussion on the Biryulyovo bashings of 2013, we show that users who post or even get commented most do not make it to the positions of most 'central' users by network metrics.
