Dear Howard,
Since the type of content you are looking for is usually removed, you might want to search for keywords (on social media or Google) like the IS news agency Aamaq https://twitter.com/search?q=%23aamaq&lang=en-gb , and their online magazine Dabiq
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dabiq_(magazine)
You may want to do that in Arabic as well.
I suggest you search twitter archives, using websites like Topsy (which doesn't exist now so you may want to search for alternatives), or other means.
Good luck!
Best,
Evronia

I'm working on a dissertation proposal on the topic of Jihadist Fanboys/Fangirls: the Role of Social Media and Fandom in Attracting Young Western Audiences to ISIS and Other Radical Groups.
The heart of this study will focus on the social media content and networking (via Twitter, Telegram and other networks) of ISIS and other jihadist sympathizers, perhaps outright members and supporters. Since ISIS has been more or less chased off Twitter I've been trying to find and follow their social media activities on Telegram but have had a hard time locating their channels on that platform. I'm writing to see if anyone can provide any guidance on accessing this type of content on Telegram and other social media.
