when we talk about proven in the empiric sense a margin of error is always expected. but what "innocent until proven guilty" guarantees is that best efforts were made to make sure that someone is really guilty. Trial by social media cannot reasonably offer such guarantees.
Also, I presume you would agree that the police and by extension the court have better means than your average newspaper for determining guilt.
