    I was on a news site yesterday that had an embed that asked if I wanted to see Twitter content or not. And I was like, “Why would I need to see and give views to a Tweet that you’re describing in this article? NOPE.” And opted out. It was great. I hope more sites do this in the future

      kid named reading the tweet yourself instead of reading a re-telling of a tweet:

      I often look up the tweets/original news stories just because media often twists the context or grasps at straws to make for a flashier headline.

        Kid named, I don’t need to give Elon the views when the article quotes the entire tweet. It’s not like they’re novels.
