Interesting article on the medias use of Twitter as a source. I know JD and 2nd Best were talking about it a couple of weeks ago.

i hear at sky they've even told certain employees (commentators/presenters) to get on twitter or take a walk. 

Well, its my preferred method for starting unsubstantiated rumours.

Yes, it's a tricky area.

I only started posting Lee Norfolk rumours on here after reading some of my own tweets on Twitter.

I read the topic as: Twitter as a media whore.

Bugger.
