In today's era

I found out about the House passage of the health care bill not from traditional news sources--but from Twitter, specifically:
'So, now we have health care like most of the free world...maybe AT&T will release the IPHONE and we can choose our carrier.'--David N. Wilson

and

'RT @repblumenauer House did its job, now the ball is in the Senate's court. Don't let America down and let's get this done!'--Barack Obama
Only then did I go to Google News and see:

House passes health care reform bill; Vote garners only one Republican
