Associated Press updates Twitter and Facebook guidelines

Journalism.co.uk :: Under the updated guidelines AP (PDF direct download link) journalists are told their "first obligation" in the case of a big breaking news event, "is to provide full details to the appropriate newsdesk for use in AP services if the desk isn’t tuned in already". But once they have informed the newsdesk and taken care of "any other immediate AP work" they are now "free to tweet or post information about the news development" on Twitter.
