Best Newsrooms on Twitter

By Molly Stark Dean 

Twitter has become a new home for tvnewsers, as they follow news websites, TV news programs, and TV news shows in 140-character bursts. To celebrate this new kind of criticism, @TVNewser is building a directory of the best newsrooms (or collection of newsers) on Twitter. Because there are so many to choose from, TVNewser has compiled a list of newsrooms to follow, and for the bigger newsrooms, we have provided official lists.

We’ve collected these newsers in a handy Twitter list, but after the jump, you can explore our growing collection of TV newsrooms–they are listed alphabetically with links to each feed or list.

This is not a comprehensive list, yet. Add your favorite Twitter TV newsrooms in the comments section. We will constantly update the directory.
