Protests in Egypt have begun against the military dictator Sisi. This is a big development, as it echos those from 2011. The first Egyptian protests of the Arab Spring are where I got my start in podcasting and doing the work I do today.
Along with alerting viewers to the protests, I'd like to ask the question why certain revolutions get Western coverage while other don't? The #Yellowvests in France are still fighting a media blackout, as are the people taking to the streets in Egypt.
Why? I think we all know the answer.

Well it certainly echoes those of 2011 protest and I'm asking is sisi a permitted dictator or are just people beginning to realise and stand up to realise and stand up to the dictatorial rule? The revolution is certainly here and looking at the streets there, it's looking tensed up
They have known he's a dictator backed by the US since the day he took office.
The press and the Western government are indeed very interested in covering or planting its influence in the oil-rich Middle East region. So naturally what happened in Egypt will attract their attention.
