Apps have different ways of communicating news. Some are more efficient than others. For example, twitter has a whole page and section dedicated to news whether it be entertainment or politics. Instagram doesn't have a section for news so the only time you find something out is when someone posts about it. Snapchat has a page for news but its usually irrelevant or fake news that is just trying to get people to click on it. In my opinion, Twitter is the best for receiving news because it uses algorithms to choose what news is best for the user. In the article, "How to Get Breaking News on Twitter", by Patrick Nelson, he states that "...the Federal Emergency Management Agency, can provide news during disasters; utilities like @SCE have Twitter feeds that provide power outage news; cities like New York's @NotifyNYC account can tweet road closures". This means that Twitter provides all types of important news to help people that are looking for important events.
