When did you first realize that Twitter could be such a powerful weapon in the breaking news?
I guess it was the 2009 Draft. It was the day before the draft and I was with Johnny Ludden, my editor at Yahoo and his wife (girlfriend at the time) Jennifer Banda. I kept saying to Johnny, I’m getting all this information on draft night. No one’s seeing it. By the time you put it up, it’s gone. How do I get this stuff out there? I’m getting this information on picks. What do we do with it? And Jennifer goes, well, get on Twitter.
