Currently, I believe social media is the best source of news; usually it is a first person account.

I was referring to a internal system which reporters and producers share which doesn't have a public feed.

If you watch some news reports, you'll notice a bunch of people at their desks with a small screen next to their larger monitors. That smaller screen is something like an IRC chat which is used to coordinate assets between reporters and producers.

This is from fox news - notice those small monitors that look out of place.

This is from CNN, notice that most monitors have CNN as their screen saver while some, with no one sitting next to them, have block boxes.
