We're joined by Joey Ayoub for Episode 54 of The Beirut Banyan, and we discuss the role of new media and citizen journalism, as well as the images of unity that have defined the demonstrations over the past four weeks.

Joey shares his reflections of events that took hold last night, coinciding with the President's speech and death of a protestor in Khalde.

Joey is the co-host of Hummus for Thought podcast.
