people should really be on their toes about this sort of poo poo imo. trump is going to be using the "fake news" angle a lot from the look of it, so don't give him ammo by spreading unsourced nonsense around.

I mean, I get where you're coming from, but what can I the passive twitter user do about being given highly believable yet false information edit: esp in that case where it's less about sources and more about a misinterpretation of what's already there

you can just follow the official accounts for like 10 major reputable news outlets and still have a way better method of keeping updated on news than people who aren't on twitter.

i really hate to say it but volkerball is right consider how long it took the nyt to have anything at all to say about the protests because they didn't get a press conference announcing it ahead of time

Well tweets are okay for instantly delivered before the press minutiae. But then again the small char limit can distort the message and youd end up reading the actual report on it later when linked by the news outlet. Tweets as they are, without a char limit upgrade and with its social media trappings, the chinese whisper trail of retweets and twitter conversations, are bullshit is what im saying. Especially bullshit if theyre a persons sole news source. Rigged Death Trap fucked around with this message at 15:45 on Jan 30, 2017 |
