Tweets of the Week: Prime Ministers, Bachelors, Clocks and Video Games

The season finale of #TheBachelorAU and #VideoGamesDay kept things light on Twitter during a week of heavy news.

Shortly after 14-year old inventor Ahmed Mohamed was arrested because his homemade clock was mistaken for a bomb, #IStandWithAhmed began trending on Twitter. Talkwalker data shows the hashtag generated almost 1 million mentions mid-week. One Tweet from President Barack Obama garnered more than 400,000 retweets alone.

Brands embracing the hashtag included Twitter, Google Science Fair and NASA.
