NYT Credits WNYC and Newsday Reporters’ Tweets

October 11, 2010

From the 13th of 16 paragraphs in the New York Times piece today, “[Republican Gubernatorial Candidate Carl] Paladino Laces Speech With Anti-Gay Remarks:”

Mr. Paladino’s statements in Brooklyn were first broadcast by Azi Paybarah, a reporter for WNYC, and Reid Epstein of Newsday, on Twitter.

(Still) not a sentence one sees every day.
