I mean it was never actually a good place for news, aside from the top five trending stories, if you wanted infinite bad takes on them.
I'd argue it was a good place for FAST news. For a lot of major events you can find posts and videos from users before the media releases anything, which is kind of a first for humanity at least in terms of accessibility.
Now, if you're looking for ACCURATE news...
It was good for fast news in the same way that I can multiply long numbers fast by always saying 62 immediately.
