Finding Good Sources of News for Baton Rouge from Twitter

I got an email from a dedicated reader this morning pointing me to a Twitter account which masquerades as a timely news source for Baton Rouge. After doing some digging, she realized that this account is linked to a deep spam and referral scheme—basically, it’s a fraud. I actually found the account a few weeks ago when they started following my accounts on Twitter, but I didn’t do the thorough research to determine it’s fake. I didn’t follow it, but only because I was indignant that someone would try to steal my thunder. In any case, I wanted to point out a really great source of Baton Rouge Twitter accounts for news. The site is Newstwit: Baton Rouge. Of course, this is a site that I developed in conjuncture with Baton Rouge-based Liquid Ventures, but I hand-selected the accounts featured on the Baton Rouge page and I guarantee the relevancy of their tweets.

Thanks for the tip, Becky!
