Twitter has great information on it—for a few minutes before the censors shut it down!

Look at the language they are using in the articles, and the lack of good grammar. Also to spelling errors.

It all reads like it was made for, and derived from, Twitter.

These hacks were insufferable enough but magnified through a narrow lens of the liberal Twittersphere, they are now completely useless to people like me.

"I’ve always thought it would make sense for newsrooms to design policies that let Twitter’s ability to deliver news shine, and mitigate other activity. Let reporters tweet headlines and breaking information. That’s it. Twitter would still be a great place to get news. Reporters would still be able to promote their work. But keeping spats and chats and personal conversations off the platform would make it less tempting for journalists to refresh Tweetdeck all day, chasing likes and retweets, overexposing themselves to industry perspectives and stories with little external relevance."

Also, stop reporting tweets as if they are news. I am long tired of reading "news articles" that simply relate what some people tweeted. Simple rule of thumb, nothing that happens on Twitter is news until it happens in the real world.

Come on you brave firefighters, go get the truth, not the Twitter truth, but the real truth.

But you wont because you are all cowards.

On the one hand, I would love for Twitter to just go away, but on the other, no Republican President has ever had the ability to reach the whole nation. If we had an honest media, he wouldn’t need TWitter...

Whenever I see a news article with a Tweet as source, I move on.

I bet they even teach Twitter as news in JournoSchool these days. Pathetic.
