Columbia Supplement- publication is twitter acceptable?

<p>Do you think it would be a good choice to list the twitter accounts I follow regularly and read for the "regularly read publication" question? I follow NPR, New York Times, BBCWorld, etc, and they're the main sources I regularly read; are they acceptable to list on the application? How could I cite that I read them?</p>

<p>I know at least the NYT Twitter is literally just links to NYT articles on the site. You would cite that as just “The New York Times”. If there is actual commentary for one of the others I suppose you could cite that as “NPR Twitter” or something like that, but I’m not sure if that’d be a good idea in the first place.</p>

<p>I would say that you follow BBCWorld, NYT, and NPR on a regular basis. Then at the end as a side note say you get updates from them using twitter.</p>

<p>Do you read the actual articles, or just tweets? If you don’t click through to articles frequently, don’t mention them at all. If you do, don’t mention twitter.</p>

<p>Suggesting that just following them on twitter is like reading the publication is like suggesting that I’m familiar with eastern philosophy because I read fortune cookies.</p>

<p>Thank you very much! Slash yes the reason I got a twitter was to stay updated from multiple news sources</p>
