The Berkman Center just came out with a report on the public discussions surrounding the SOPA-PIPA actions; drawing on the Media Cloud work by Yochai Benkler and others.
It provides context for the discussions on the English Wikipedia, and captures the differences between the grassroots and top-down decisions by different organizations and media channels who took part in the blackout.
An interactive time-visual shows how the conversation was driven at different times by different communities: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/research/mediacloud/2013/mapping_sopa_pipa/#
Interesting, even in the day of the blackout reddit was linked almost as much as Wikipedia.
