- busterarm 7y agoIt became the formal gathering place once Twitter bent the knee and started handing out blue checkmarks like candy to every low-level media personality basically on-demand. At some media companies, getting you your blue checkmark is part of the HR on-boarding process, ffs. Journalists are clearly the heaviest, most important Twitter users at this point.
