If someone announces something on twitter, can i post it on my blog as news ?
I am a video Games journalist and i have very few readers so i decided to use twitter to help my writing so is it legal for me to use a designers tweet as news?
this is the one i mean it's from the official mass effect 2 twitter
RT @truffle Working on the new "technology" feature for #masseffect2. It's secret, and awesome! Don't tell anyone.

By putting it on Twitter it's in the public domain so you're free to do what you like with it.

NB - I hope you have a good editor as your grammar is a bit rubbish for a 'journalist'

If they confirm it they can't sue you, only if you make it up.
So sure!
