How do you find news via Twitter before news networks pick up on it?

I know it's not always accurate, but I'm still curious to know. Wouldn't you have to be following just the right person in order to catch it? Or are there feeds that constantly monitor Twitter?

Thanks!

You're right to some extent. If you follow certain people/organizations than you can be updated when they send a tweet. More and more organizations are now using twitter to deliver information. Just search for major news agencies and you'll find the ones who have twitter accounts.

However, one site that I like to use that keeps a pulse on what's going on with twitter is http://www.twitscoop.com/. Try it out, I think you'll like it.
