From Poynter: The New York Times is turning off the automatic feed for its main Twitter account this week in an experiment to determine if a human-run, interactive approach will be more effective. Good idea or bad idea? IMO, it’s likely the former (and about time!). I wonder how many other news organizations will follow suit after the Times announcement. I also wonder what relationship — if any — this move has with the Times paywall.
