Brian Merchant /
@bcmerchant: This is very dumb on many levels. The media is trying to report as accurate as possible, as quickly as possible—largely to feed the incentives of websites like this one. Meanwhile, the only decent live-ish tweeting of the event I am aware of came from working journalists. [image]

Michael Scherer /
@michaelscherer: All these headlines were updated after shots were confirmed. The alternative would be for news organizations to report an “apparent” shooting or to guess. Journalists don't report what is not confirmed. That is not propaganda. It's real value over the musings on this site.

Eric Newcomer /
@ericnewcomer: In any other instance Silicon Valley would tell people to build a better version rather than endlessly complaining. Create something better but this armchair media criticism when a photographer literally ran toward the president to get photos is infuriating

Eric Newcomer /
@ericnewcomer: My feed here was full of six hour old posts when the news was breaking and x kept mixing in old tweets for many hours, and part of why people are mad about these early headlines is x doesn't have any sense of breaking news anymore and shows way too much old stuff

Aidan McLaughlin /
@aidnmclaughlin: Beyond the fact that most of the news on X is provided directly by “the legacy media,” the idea that any of this reporting on the shooting is propaganda is total nonsense https://www.mediaite.com/...

Lawrence Hurley /
@lawrencehurley: One-eyed media commentary ignores the fact that professional, responsible journalists only publish what they know in the moment because in a breaking news situation there is so much you don't know. And of course much of the accurate information on X comes from journalists.

Eric Newcomer /
@ericnewcomer: X relies on the best photos from the media, key facts from the media, video from the media and then turns around and blames the media for the poor coverage while providing mostly distribution rather than fresh information

Jay Rosen /
@jayrosen_nyu: First 24 hours are ideal conditions for bad media: * Interest in the facts is off the charts, but there is only a handful of them * Bad actors fill the unmet demand * Political discussion silenced by civiltarians * Both sides bromides roar * Memory itself said to be in bad taste

Timothy B. Lee /
@binarybits: People (justifiably) get mad at “the media” if they get facts wrong. But the also get mad at “the media” if they write cautiously in the early minutes of a developing story to avoid factual errors. Covering breaking news quickly but accurately is hard.
