I wonder if there's much research and data around tracking the dissemination of news stories. I imagine it's more difficult with companies like reddit and twitter/X locking down their APIs but I'd interested to see some broad tracking on where stories initially break and where the engagement flows over time afterward across every platform.
Twitter says traditional media is dieing and it is the new source of authentic news(Derived from Elon's tweet 28Mar24). And vox says otherwise. However Vox still do have active twitter handle.
So its all perplexed situation to make any conclusions.
