It's not though. You can find major scoops on Twitter hours, often days before it gets reported by the news. Reliably from people on the ground and reporters such as @ytirwawi and @ireallyhateyou translating them.
These are nowhere to be found on Mastodon.. News sites subsequently add no real info to those stories and often provide even less information than the original posters. Even Jeremy Scahill from Dropsitenews recently pointed out the despite being a Nazi platform, Twitter contains tonnes of content which cannot be found on other mainstream social media platforms.
