The article describes the effect that the Periscope streams/broadcasts had on the views and opinions of the refugees. The German journalist used his phone and Periscope to document and broadcast live footage of how and what the refugees do. The use of his phone was so that border control don't recognize him for being the press/media, also since there's no crew and it's all live streamed, he's able to illustrate an accurate image of the reality that these people live in, as the media have put a very negative image and opinions on these individuals. Since it was all live streamed the viewers could also communicate with the journalist and by doing that many questions have been answered about the refugees and why they're doing this etc.
