I'm quite disappointed to say the least about the "twitter people" and their small talk covering this event. They appear to act more like socialite groupies than people who can report information, perspectives and read between the lines.

No wonder TMZ is doing so great – because TMZ have real journalist skills…

It's an interesting way to provide some character and color when our dry wire stories often can't do that, at least at Reuters. If you sent someone here, how many blogs would they have to post to justify the cost? Probably more than enough for the average reader. Not that I've done the math…
