PCC seeks to regulate [UK] press Twitter feeds [Guardian]

Reporter and newspaper Twitter feeds are expected to brought under the
regulation of the Press Complaints Commission later this year, the
first time the body has sought to consolidate social media messages
under its remit. The PCC believes that some postings on Twitter are,
in effect part of a "newspaper's editorial product", writings that its
code of practice would otherwise cover if the same text appeared in
print or on a newspaper website.
