      start doing their fucking jobs as journalists and write out the content of the tweet in their own words.

      if they’d be doing their jobs as journalists they wouldn’t be typing out “tweets” at all, they should be reporting things that matter like the god damn corruption everywhere.

      They should use Twitter for what it is, not as the main source of information. I’m so sick of it. Use Twitter as an additional channel to promote your stuff, chat with people maybe. But goddammit, don’t use Twitter as the main channel (just like how it was with Facebook years back, spit).

        While I agree that using Twitter for your news isn’t cool, if a corp or a politician or someone tweets something on there, their tweet counts as quote and referencing that is an important part of journalism.
