It’s true that expertise is available outside Twitter, but Twitter has been great at letting me find it. The mechanism is retweets from people I trust. Note, trust also helps distinguish bullshit from truth. I don’t know what a Javelin is, or how the war in the south is progressing, but the right journalist can find the right expert who does. I don’t say these problems have been solved perfectly, just that they’re better than I expected.
