I have used Twitter to find sources and read what others are up to, and I do enjoy my Twitter conversations about bicycling. And I've tried to not be that person who's always Tweeting too hard. But credibility counts. I support this move by LAist and NPR.

LAist supports NPR's decision and, in solidarity, will no longer post to our Twitter accounts. While you will no longer see fresh content on our Twitter account, there are many other ways to access our local news and programming. Learn more: https://t.co/lObn9HayEn
