Twitter has some misguided PR priorities. So many news stories include tweets from extreme perspectives that have gotten thousands of likes/retweets/whatever. Since Twitter really works on their API for this, it's clear they think it's a good thing. This is their biggest source of free advertising and it always presents Twitter as a fringe-fest or, worse, knee-jerk mob mentality and nothing more. They really need to re-think promoting a system that gives the outside world a view of only the most extreme and unflattering view. No matter your political views, someone you respect will have negative Tweets presented in the news. It really makes it feel like it's only a platform for someone else.
