This Week's Top News Stories on YouTube-- Mitt Romney claims victory in New Hampshire, award-winning French journalist is killed in Syria, and a national strike paralyses Nigeria











Everyday on the CitizenTube Channel (and @CitizenTube on Twitter), along with our curation partners @storyful, we look at how the top news stories are covered on YouTube. Every week we'll post a weekly recap of the top news stories of the week:





We were saddened as award-winning French journalist Gilles Jacquier was killed during attacks on a pro-government rally in Homs, Syria.
We watched strong condemnation worldwide as video emerged of four US marines urinating on Taliban corpses.
We monitored events in Syria as eleven Arab League observers were injured in an attack on one of their cars in Latakia.
We marked Guantanamo Bay's tenth year of operation, a period Amnesty is calling "a decade of damage to human rights".
We followed the GOP candidates on the US campaign trail, as Mitt Romney took New Hampshire and looked ahead to South Carolina. 
We saw more than ten feet of snow falling on parts of Alaska, especially around the town of Cordova.
We viewed a national strike in Nigeria bringing the country to a standstill as thousands continued to protest the scrapping of the fuel subsidy
We witnessed a surfer's paradise develop in California as massive waves hit beaches all along the coast.
And finally, we watched South Africa celebrate one hundred years since the forming of the African National Congress.
