I am so damn sick of "news" articles summarizing social media posts. Worse, the posts are seemingly chosen at random without even going to the effort of contacting the poster, not that such an interview would improve anything.

If I wanted to read what random Twitter users thought about a topic, I'd just read Twitter. I read news articles to learn from experts I wouldn't otherwise have access to, not random Reddit trolls, Instagram moms, and Russian Twitter bots.
