Are Twitter pile ons really necessary?

from Critical Line Item with Tom Ravlic

Twitter is renowned for being a platform on which personalities and politicians and journalists experience feedback that is particularly toxic. IPA director of policy, Gideon Rozner, and Tom Ravlic explore various issues that emanate from the use of social media as a platform for discussion but also one on which people dial up the aggro. They also discuss a recent incident that reflected the worst of social media. And whether there is a distinction to be made between content of an argument and tone when engaging online.
