I'm a medical editor, so I was referring to following known sources such as the Journals of the American Medical Association (JAMA) and my county's health commissioner on specific issues that would bore the hell out of anyone not following them. Like, is "health care" one word or two? Or, if you really want to get controversial, is it "Crohn disease" or "Crohn's disease"? I would not accept popular consensus on any of these white hot issues. If I had an issue related to my own health, I would ask a doctor. Basically, I will miss Twitter for work as it is a good way to keep up with the major journals. But I was in too deep with Twitter and couldn't manage to filter out the outrage.

Fair enough! You know what to look for and how to tell reliable from unreliable sources. I hope more people become good at the same thing……
