Telegraph reporters made to tweet

An email from the Daily Telegraph executive director Richard Ellis has been circulated among the group's 500-plus journalists saying “all reporters must be on Twitter.”

The paper outlined the management’s plan to focus on digital media, according to which Telegraph reporters are now required to tweet an average of once an hour.

A harder task still has befallen the paper’s editors who are expected to update their tweets every 15 minutes.

An Independent journalist has commented on the plan saying the Telegraph director must have not heeded the wise words of British PM David Cameron who said long ago that “too many twits might make a twat.”
