This thread got me thinking about how much news I receive from Twitter; although I consider using Twitter for general status updates somewhat lame, I think it's a great source for news updates.

So, feel free to post any news or opinion/news sources you follow on Twitter. I tend to follow both right-wing and left-wing sources, in order to get the full spectrum of crazy.

I'll start:

I've been getting my niche news from twitter for a while - stuff that appeals to me that wouldn't appear on NPR or the front page of a newspaper. eg - motocycle reviews, new smartphones, advances in solar technology, video games, etc

ProPublica also has a page on Twitter.

ProPublica teamed up with Frontline and The Times-Picayune for this story:

Law & Disorder: An on-air and online investigation into questionable police shootings by the New Orleans Police Department in the wake of Katrina
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/law-disorder/

I read this story when it was first released in print and am glad that it's also being presented in video format.
