I’m more concerned with “journalists who use Twitter to get tips for reporting”.
Like, isn’t a journalist supposed to contrast and verify information? Not just spin some random tips from Twitter?

A tip isn’t a story in itself, it’s a suggestion of where to start looking for one. “Hey, I’m off the record here, but some shady shit is going down at my job and you might want to fire off a Freedom of Information request for x, y and z or talk to a and b” is a pretty good tip.
