I'm starting to get into Twitter a little more. (I know, behind the times) Who would you all recommend following? Which writers seem to get the "inside" info? Thanks in advance...

matt spiegel is the number one trusted source on twitter for false contract numbers. He blames Marines1 though.

Zaidman is good to follow as he breaks a lot of stories and has a lot of useful information.

Adam Hoge, Michael C. Wright, Laurence Holmes have good info.

I follow Brad Biggs, Dan Pompei, Jason LaConfora, Adam Schefter, Laurence Holmes, Chris Mortenson, and John Clayton.

There just isn't many people local worth following, but I have my bases covered for breaking news, which is all I care about.


Oh, and I hate Michael Wright - he's always last to report news, and then pretends that he broke it.

Not at all. I think it is hilarious that your post took over 20 minutes from first posting through final edit. :rofl:
Editing is good..Its keeps buffoons like you on their heels

Bowen and Stoltz are the only two guys that are real journalists even though neither is really a beat.

All the rest do is just paraphrase interviews and pressers.

As far as twitter, I would just follow all of them.

Don't forget Moon Mullen. He is good for some laughs. And follow some national dudes too like Schefter.
