People linked with Newspapers

Simon Ostrovsky is a reporter for Vice News, before the conflict in Ukraine and Syria, he was a freelancer that Vice News hired whenever they needed reliable translators for places that speak Russian or Ukrainian, he is also very skilled journalist, going to places of war and reporting on them unless he is stopped. During the start of the Crimean annexation he trespassed on a then Ukrainian military port to speak to the crew of the ship while being told to leave the area by ''little green men''.

Most of his tweets are about things that are happening at the time or about the stories and reports that he is involved with, lately he has been involved
with #freerasool which is about a journalist that was arrested by the Turkish government on false terrorist allegations. Most of his tweets though are still retweets of stories from the official Vice News twitter page, or his own posts that link to the stories he's involved in like his constant reports on ''Russian Roulette'', He mentions people in his tweets and uploads appropriate images if one os available.

Shaun King is a civil rights journalist, he isn't affiliated with any specific newspaper or outlet but he does work as a freelancer for various outlets,

Most of his tweets are about social, racial and religious justice, as a civil rights activist he is very open minded and what he says is supported by facts and not speculations like actual news outlets. He is a very active user on twitter and mentions people and links to articles whenever whatever he is talking about is associated with a specific story.
