It annoys me to see this. Quoting tweets is the laziest form of journalism. But to be fair to journalists, finding a couple of real world people and quoting their opinions as if they are representative of the larger public isn’t any more rigorous.
And it’s possible to cherry-pick people to push any narrative you want. Like the NYT talking about how GenZ is very pro-life, quoting several pro-life youngsters. Meanwhile buried somewhere in that long article is the lede - only 20% of GenZ is pro-life.
