re: #332 Obdicut

Most people don’t have the time to figure out who is the go-to person for a breaking news story, which is why so much crap will be spread during a breaking story (aside from the fact that many first impression/eyewitness reports turn out to be inaccurate anyways).

If you’ve been a reliable and responsible blogger in the past, you’re likely to continue to be so as a twitterer (or whatever new form of instant news arises).
