People are browsing Twitter and find articles much faster than by checking one news website at the time.
On the other hand, this also opens the door to link to a tweet containing falsified article screenshot.
As someone who links to quite a lot of tweets, it happens a lot (probably majority actually..) of times that most tweets contain a screenshot of an article instead of a direct link. I read the article headline and if everything passes my counter-falsified detection radar system then I assume its ok and I post it... Of course I have fallen to this trap some times, but the vast vast (like 99%) majority of times the tweets I post that have a screenshot of an article are genuine.
This is a side hobby, people who browse Twitter in their free time won't go out of their way to find whatever original article was screenshot to a tweet. There are dozens and dozens of news happening every day. It is too bothersome and actually becoming a border-line job, to start doing all that due-diligence.
I would suggest trusting some specific well known posters or/and specific Twitter accounts that they provide genuine news than hunting for hundreds of articles which have screenshots in tweets
This forum already operates in the trust aspect as well. The moment you have Blitzo and Deino tweets you know its the real stuff. And when you have tweets from certain twitter fanboys who like to posts fake images you throw it into the garbage bin.
Of course not everyone is perfect and people will inevitably fall to this trap but imo the benefits outweigh the disadvantages
so I think there it should be a rule that original articles (or archive links) should be posted. No screenshots.
For the above reasons I wrote, I don't agree with this if it includes article screenshots in a tweet
Maybe for members below a certain rank it could be considered. Personally I pay much more attention to senior members posts than junior members's writings
