Should Twitter be used as a "source" for news?

Asked by chyna (51311points) September 3rd, 2013

I was watching my local news this morning and the announcer says “according to sources on Twitter, the US is closer to striking against Syria. We are waiting to see what the Obama administration will do.”
Really? Twitter as a source? What’s next, Facebook?
According to Facebook, 9 year old girls are now starting their periods.
